Effect of hydrogen content on the double oxide film defects and properties of aluminium castings: A review (2018)
Journal Article
El-Sayed, M. A., Shyha, I., & Basuny, F. H. (2018). Effect of hydrogen content on the double oxide film defects and properties of aluminium castings: A review. Journal of Engineering Technology, 6, 225-244

Entrapped double oxide films are known to be the most detrimental defects in cast aluminium alloys. In addition, hydrogen dissolved in the aluminium melt was suggested to pass into the defects to expand them and cause hydrogen porosity. This paper pr...
