Abstract

Filter medium in the form of a stable body made of ceramic material and employed for filtering molten metals. The filter medium is made up of at least two effective filter layers such that a relatively thick layer of large pore diameter lies on a relatively thin layer of small pore diameter. This arrangement aims at attaining the maximum possible wetting of the interior of the filter medium.
