QUICK DECISION

Four answers before reading the technical detail

This section supports initial screening; final grade, addition and effects require operating conditions, formal documents and plant validation.

01

What it is

A dedicated Mg-RE-FeSi treatment-alloy family for compacted-graphite iron, controlled by actual formula, base iron, target residual Mg and compacted-graphite rate. The slash in the name denotes market wording within one use family.

02

What it does

  • Compacted-graphite iron treatment
  • Joint Mg/RE control
  • Closed-loop compacted-graphite control
03

Where it fits

  • Treatment-ladle, cover-ladle or another validated magnesium-treatment point
04

Boundary not to miss

  • Magnesium reaction, fume, splash and hot-metal risks require SDS and plant controls; both excess and deficiency can lose structure control

SELECTION BOUNDARY

Start with the selection boundary

A dedicated CGI treatment alloy cannot be automatically replaced by an ordinary nodulariser. Determine it from base-iron S/O, temperature, residual-Mg window, interfering elements, thermal analysis and microscopy; the website promises no fixed compacted-graphite rate.

PRODUCT MANUFACTURING

Product manufacturing process

A cast-iron treatment alloy is generally made from a verified FeSi matrix and Mg, RE, Ca or other active elements by a supplier-declared controlled smelting, remelt-alloying or another verified route, followed by casting, cooling, crushing, screening, homogenising and testing. Actual addition method, furnace and controls for reactive elements must be documented by the manufacturer; this page does not depict a Jinsheng-owned line.

  1. 01Similar names, forms or uses do not make products interchangeable; confirm product identity, specification, application process and order documents separately.
  2. 02Confirm the FeSi matrix, active elements, returns and product-use identity
  3. 03Follow manufacturer documents for controlled smelting or remelt alloying and manage reaction and homogeneity
  4. 04Cast, cool, crush and screen while controlling fines, oxidation and moisture pickup
  5. 05Homogenise and sample representatively, then test active elements, sizing, safety and pack condition

SPECIFICATIONS & PACKAGING

Grades, specifications, indicators and packaging

A treatment alloy requires an SKU by target iron, active-element system and treatment method. Formal documents must fix Si, Fe, Mg, RE, Ca and other active/limiting elements, matrix and phase, form, sizing, fines, moisture, pack, sampling, TDS, SDS/PSI and lot COA. This page does not present a family name or reference chemistry as a company stock grade.

  1. 01The specification must fix Mg, actual RE composition, Si, Fe and Ca, Al and other limits, and state the CGI-specific grade, phase, sizing, fines, moisture, pack and lot COA.
  2. 02Confirm ductile iron, CGI or another validated iron type and the supplier's formal treatment-alloy grade
  3. 03Fix Mg, RE, Ca, Si, Fe and all limiting elements and test methods
  4. 04Fix form, sizing, fines and moisture for pour-over, sandwich, wire-feeding or another approved practice
  5. 05Confirm moisture-protected pack, label, TDS, SDS/PSI, lot COA and formula-change control

INDUSTRY APPLICATION

Industry, furnace, material and addition point

Confirm the process position before method and quantity calculations; an application relationship for one furnace or material must not be copied to another.

01

Iron foundries

Treatment-ladle, cover-ladle or another validated magnesium-treatment point

Furnace / equipment
Dedicated treatment ladle after cupola, induction or duplex melting
Material / output
Compacted-graphite iron melt reviewed for base S/O, temperature and target compacted-graphite rate

APPLICATION METHOD

Application method and effect validation

The treatment plan must be based on base-iron chemistry, S/O, temperature, treatment-ladle layout, iron mass, target residual active elements and historical recovery. Use measured lot values for the mass balance and validate reaction intensity, residuals, graphite form, slag entrainment and performance in a small trial. Different iron types and treatment methods do not share a fixed kg/t, recovery or effect claim.

  1. 01The CGI compacted-graphite window must be set from base-iron S/O, temperature, treatment ladle, target residual Mg/RE, section thickness and downstream inoculation; a ductile-iron nodularising plan cannot be copied directly.
  2. 02Confirm iron type, base-iron S/O, temperature, iron mass, target residual elements and structure
  3. 03Check lot COA, sizing and dry condition and complete the mass balance with site historical recovery
  4. 04Run a small trial with the approved ladle layout, cover, pour-over or feeding sequence and control the reaction
  5. 05Verify residuals, nodular/compacted state, graphite form, slag entrainment, defects and performance
  6. 06Close by residual Mg/RE, compacted-graphite ratio/form, carbides, slag entrainment, defects and casting performance; correct or stop immediately when the window is missed.

PROBLEM AND SOLUTION

From operating objective to effect verification

Each application explains the role, method, quantity principle and risk boundary; the final proposal is confirmed against operating conditions and lot documents.

01

Iron foundries

Treatment-ladle, cover-ladle or another validated magnesium-treatment point

Furnace / equipment
Dedicated treatment ladle after cupola, induction or duplex melting
Material / output
Compacted-graphite iron melt reviewed for base S/O, temperature and target compacted-graphite rate
Method
Arrange the actual treatment alloy for the ladle and reaction-control method; after treatment, deslag, inoculate separately and verify residual Mg, thermal analysis and microscopy.
Quantity determination
Calculate from base-iron S/O, treatment temperature, target residual Mg, lot-measured Mg/RE and site-validated recovery; this page publishes no fixed rate or guaranteed effect.
Expected effects
  • Builds the target compacted-graphite range under closed-loop control
Limits and risks
  • Magnesium reaction, fume, splash and hot-metal risks require SDS and plant controls; both excess and deficiency can lose structure control

STORAGE & SAFETY

Storage, handling and risk

  • Keep dry and lot-segregated and prevent mix-ups; dust, fume and hot-metal charging controls must follow the SDS/PSI for the actual form and plant procedures.
  • Without a formal SKU, TDS, SDS/PSI and lot COA, no chemistry, grade, sizing, pack, stock, dose, recovery or performance is promised.

This section does not replace the company's final SDS/PSI or the plant safety procedure.
