Abstract
Present paper describes the effect of melt inoculation of A356 alloy using Sb and Sr on its microstructural and subsequent influence on the mechanical properties of the same. The effect of melt holding time has also been investigated. The results show that Sr is better modifier for shorter holding time, and its modification efficiency is lost on longer holding of the melt. Interestingly, modification efficiency of Sb increases with the holding time. The results show encouraging behavior of these modifiers both at short as well as longer holding. The tensile and wear properties of A356 alloy modified using combined addition of Sr and Sb are promising.
