Abstract:One of the most important factors in the LPDC process is the heat transfer during the solidification of the molten alloys, which is responsible for the resulting microstructure and, thus, the quality of the cast piece. The use of foundry coatings has been lately suggested as a proper strategy to control the heat transfer while protecting bonded moulds from aluminium adhesion by providing a barrier between the surface and the liquid metal. LPDC die coating failures usually come from the loss of adherence or exc… Show more
