Question

Slush casting method is easily applicable to the high melting temperature materials.

(a) True

(b) False

The question was posed to me in homework.

This is a very interesting question from Slush Casting topic in chapter Special Casting Techniques of Casting-Forming-Welding I

Answer 1

Correct answer is (b) False

Explanation: The high melting temperature materials such as aluminium and brass cannot be cast easily by slush casting method because temperature of melt can make defects in the mould and casting itself, so low melting temperature materials such as tin, zinc and lead are mainly used in the slush casting process.
