Strontium and antimony modifiers were added to silumin 226 in a melting crucible furnace, separately, in the amounts of 0.1; 0.2 and 0.3% of the mass of the modified metal. After modification, the silumin was refined with the solid refiner ECOSAL-Al 113 in the amount of 0.5% of the charge mass.enTheoretical basics of casting processesSilumin 226Modificationproces odlewaniapodstawy teoretycznesilumin 226modyfikacjeArtykuł
