Which outcome increases when liquid expands during metal casting?

💡 Explanation

Micro-porosity increases due to volumetric shrinkage coupled with insufficient feeding during solidification; the mechanism is interdendritic segregation, because liquid expansion generates internal voids during phase change; therefore micro-porosity forms, rather than larger voids, under lower constraint or higher initial cooling rates.
