INOCULANTS
Introduction: One of the ever present challenges to even the most experienced foundryman is the selection of the best Inoculation combination of elements and practice to optimize and achieve the required cast metal structure and matrix.Therefore, while there are several permutations and combinations of various Elements to achieve desired results in a single homogenous addition, Barium containing inoculants are amongst the most popular as, in combination with certain elements, they are generally suited both for the inoculation of Grey and Ductile iron.
 
Function: The element Barium is known to improve graphite nucleation and reduce fading. It also reduces chill, promotes graphite and neutralizes harmful tramp elements.

Benefits:
Homogenous combination of Ba, Ca provides a reliable, reproducible, consistent source of inoculation elements
Reduces Chill and promotes graphite nucleation
Resists fading, allowing for the nuclei containing Ba to remain stable for longer periods of time therefore very suitable for large castings and for thick walled castings where holding and pouring times are high.
Increases nucleation rates in both Grey & Ductile irons
