What is it about?
In this study, the relationship between microstructural parameters such as grain size and the amount of phases with bulk hardness of SnCu4Pb3 is concerned in three areas of the casting. Consequently, to achieve the desired hardness of the casting in a particular area, the interaction of two factors of the microstructure including, grain size and particles amount of the hard intermetallic compositions (Cu6Sn5) should be noted.

Why is it important?
Horizontal centrifugal casting is an effective method for the production of hollow casting with good mechanical properties, low defect, cast to size and relatively reasonable price. The ability of a metal to satisfy the above requirements highly depends on its microstructure
