Which consequence results when ancient Chinese iron-casting temperatures are excessively low?

💡 Explanation

Incomplete melting leads to insufficient liquid flow during casting; this causes void formation by entrapped gas because the melt solidifies prematurely due to reduced fluidity. Therefore porosity is increased, rather than other changes dependent on higher melt temperatures.
