Rare Earths along with Bismuth, Calcium and to a lesser extent Aluminum arethe inoculating elements in this Ferro-Silicon based master alloy. Thecombination of Rare Earths and Bismuth give an increased number of small,well shaped nodules within ductile iron.These inoculants are available as 62 and 72% Si-based ferroalloys with defined levels of bismuth and calcium.
Advantages
Lower addition rate of Inoculant
- higher nodule count
- Reduced risk for micro shrinkage and carbide formation even in thin section
- increased ferrite for ductile iron.
- In addition, it is also a good foundry practice to have a high potency inoculant in the final stage of pouring.
