摘要
The manuscript presents changes of macrostructure and microstructure of plate and shaft castings made of cobalt alloy MAR-M509. They have different values of geometric module M within the range of 0.91 -5.56 mm that have been created with multilayer ceramic shell moulds （MSC） of different initial temperatures of 200-1000 ℃ at the moment of pouring. It has been stated that decrease of initial temperature of MSC and value M causes increase in casting fine-granularity, distance reduction between dendrite branches λ2 and refinement of initial carbides in irregular ternary eutectic γ＋M23C6 ＋MC.
