Slag inclusions - GIESSEREILEXIKON

Slag inclusions. As, in most cases, this defect is related to furnace or melt treatment slag it can occur in all casting materials, independent of the molding or casting process. This defect is often observed on casting surfaces on top in the mold, cores, and protruding mold sections. These non-metallic inclusions can be accompanied by gas bubbles.

Due to oxidation of molten iron or the various elements in iron liquid react with the material of casting and sand core, it will generate slag again. We often call it "secondary slag" (as distinct from the existence of "first slag").
