Investigations of Properties of Wax Mixtures Used in the Investment Casting Technology – New Investigation Methods
Journal Title: Archiwum Odlewnictwa - Year 2012, Vol 12, Issue 3
Abstract
The results of testing of the selected group of wax mixtures used in the investment casting technology, are presented in the paper. The measurements of the kinetics of the mixtures shrinkage and changes of viscous-plastic properties as a temperature function were performed. The temperature influence on bending strength of wax mixtures was determined.
