Correct answer: A. Carbon and silicon should be low

  • A. Carbon and silicon should be low
  • B. Silicon should be low but carbon should be high
  • C. Both silicon & carbon should be high
  • D. Silicon should be high but carbon should be low

Explanation

Rimming steel requires low carbon and silicon so that carbon monoxide evolution produces the characteristic rim during solidification. High silicon would deoxidize the steel and suppress this rimming action.
