However, in the presence of Sr, during melting and holding durations, the oxide structure of the dross may change which leads to several problems during casting operations. In this work, the amount of Sr was changed and the melt was held for 1 h. Reduced Pressure Test (RPT) was used to asses melt quality change and it was found that cleanliness was increased due to the fading of Sr.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessA356Sr modificationbifilmporosityArticleQ372WOS:000535225600002
