Bariant

Barium, Aluminium and Calcium are the main inoculating elements in this Ferro-Silicon based master alloy. The narrow range of composition of themaster alloy allied to the total amount of inoculating elements produces a veryconsistent inoculating effect which gives vast improvements within the castiron microstructure. Barium has the added benefit of delaying inoculant fade.These inoculants are available as 67 and 72% Si-based ferroalloys with defined levels of barium and calcium.

ADVANTAGES

• Fade resistant inoculant
• Used in grey and ductile iron
• Very effective in low S grey iron
• Positive effect on slag formation in ductile iron
• Effective inoculant for alloyed irons such as Ni-resist
• Especially effective as a preconditioner or as first step inoculation
• High Si inoculants are more effective than low Si inoculants
• Available sizes
1. 2 - 6 mm
