Product Group : Nodulisers
and Inoculants
Product :
Inoculant - FeSiBa
Application :
Inoculation is a process of controlling the
structure and properties of cast iron by increasing
the number of nucleation events during
solidification. An inoculant is a material added to
the hot metal just prior to casting which provides
as suitable phase for nucleation of graphite during
subsequent cooling process. The abjective of
inoculation is to provide enough nucleation sites
for the carbon to precipitate as graphite instead of
ion carbide(cementite, Fe3C)
