Aluminum casting method

摘要

An aluminum casting method includes the step of applying in advance a mold release agent including magnesium to a mold surface. Thereafter, a nitrogen gas is injected into a cavity to cause reaction between the magnesium in the surface of the mold release agent and the nitrogen gas, thereby forming magnesium nitride. Since the nitrogen gas reacts only with the magnesium exposed in the surface of the mold release agent, the forming time of the magnesium nitride is reduced and also the amount of nitrogen gas used is reduced.
