TL;DR: In this paper, the directional solidification of a melt of a first metal in a casting mold is described, whereby the melt is introduced into the mould at a temp above the m pt of the first metal and then cooled in the mould by dipping the mould into a bath of a molten second metal at a second temp below the m p of the original metal.
Abstract: Process is for the directional solidification of a melt (1) of a first metal in a casting mould (2), whereby the melt (1) is introduced into the mould at a temp above the m pt of the first metal and then cooled in the mould (2) by dipping the mould (2) into a bath (3) of a molten second metal at a second temp below the m pt of the first metal The bath (3) is covered with a free-flowing, floating layer (4) of loose thermally insulating material (5,6) through which the mould (2) contg the melt (1) is dipped Appts for carrying out the method is also claimed
