Summary
When pressure die-casting aluminium it is not unusual that aluminium sticks to the cores and other parts of the die. This can result in increased production cost due to inadequate surface finish of the casting, extra cleaning of casting ancj/or die and even scrapping of the casting. The following paper gives the results obtained with Ni, Cr and Al2O3 coated cores that were evaluated in industrial casting production.
