CHROMECAST-XF is a micro-fine
grained phosphate-bonded high-heat investment specially
developed to cast partials in chrome-cobalt alloys. The
models are made using special liquid to control expansion
and provide a harder smoother model. The investing can be
done by using water only or by using a small amount of special
liquid to give the mold higher burnout strength and higher
thermal expansion for added expansion control.
A finer grain material it offers the
following outstanding properties:
- A creamier mix
- Longer working time
- Elimination of bubbles on the
castings
- Most stable expansion characteristics
with higher thermal expansion
- Excellent consistency from batch
to batch
It can also be used for other castings
in gold, palladium, platinum, and non-precious alloys when
it is used with special liquid. The selective use of the
special liquid provides controlled expansion required for
other applications such as crown & bridge castings.
