Inhibitors are generally used in mould to avoid reaction of magnesium with moulding materials.(a) True(b) FalseI had been asked this question in an international level competition.I'd like to ask this question from Magnesium Alloys topic in chapter Foundry Introduction & Materials of Casting-Forming-Welding II

Answer»

Right answer is (a) True

Easiest explanation: When moulding materials like silica, moisture and BINDERS make contact with magnesium, the reaction takes place which arise problems in the CASTINGS of magnesium alloys.
