A process of forming an erosion, oxidation, and wear resistant shot chamber, either a gooseneck or a shot sleeve, is provided. The process utilizes a self-healing erosive wear resistant coating on a liner of refractory metal to serve as the working surfaces of a shot chamber. Such a shot chamber is expected to have an improved service life for die casting of corrosive metals and alloys, including hot chamber die casting of aluminum alloys. An improved hot dipping process using stirring in the molten metal bath is also disclosed.

Disclosed is a die casting apparatus including a movable die provided with a forming space; and a lower fixed die which corresponds to the movable die and accommodates molten metal, and includes a sleeve into which the molten metal is injected, wherein the molten metal is cast into a formed object by bringing the movable die and the lower fixed die into contact with each other. The die casting apparatus is provided with a movable electromagnetically controlled structure control module including at least one electromagnetic stirring device-accommodating part that accommodates an electromagnetic stirring device therein and is configured to pass through the lower fixed die to the vicinity of the sleeve in order to electromagnetically stir the molten metal injected through the sleeve.

Provided is a mold release agent composition containing a polymer ester, the composition exerting a good mold releasability even when the temperature of mold increases, and a die casting method using the composition.
