← HistoryWhich outcome results when bronze casting utilizes insufficient crucible preheating circa 2500 BCE?
A)Increased metal solidification shrinkage porosity✓
B)Improved alloy compositional homogeneity obtained
C)Enhanced bronze crystallization dendritic structures
D)Optimized surface frictional wear resistance
💡 Explanation
Increased metal solidification shrinkage porosity occurs because inadequate crucible preheating, specifically in bronze casting reduces melt fluidity; therefore, interdendritic feeding constricts leading to macro porosity, rather than improving homogeneity.
