Effect of the exothermic mixture humidity on the metal solidification in the feeders

The work deals with research activities in the field of casting and also the nature and principle of exothermic castings. Furthermore, an experiment was designed to investigate the effects of moisture on the exothermic mixture and its settling ability. For the experiment, risers with different degrees of humidity formed into bentonite molds were used. Furthermore, the solidification curves obtained during the melt in the riser and the shrinkage which were formed in the riser were evaluated
