Which risk increases when dissolved gases exceed solubility during investment casting?

💡 Explanation

Gas porosity develops because the solubility limit decreases rapidly during solidification leading to bubble nucleation; the undercooled liquid then freezes preventing the gas ‘escape’ – this is the **solute redistribution**. Therefore, porosity increases, rather than lower density, due to other diffusion phenomena at equilibrium.
