← TechnologyIn the investment casting of turbine blades for jet engines, which outcome indicates incomplete shell dewaxing?
A)Surface finish degradation results✓
B)Shrinkage porosity significantly increases
C)Crystalline structure becomes finer
D)Creep resistance is compromised
💡 Explanation
Incomplete shell dewaxing interferes with proper molten metal flow, because residual wax creates backpressure and uneven mold filling. This causes surface finish degradation rather than improved crystalline structure; therefore, smoothness decreases because of irregularities, rather than porosity changes at solidification.
