Chthonian planet rocky planet and not the eroded core of a gas or ice giant, due to the young age of the star system. Kepler-70b and Kepler-70c are sub-Earth planets that are thought to have been giant planets that were engulfed by the extended envelope of their star in its red giant phase vaporizing their gaseous envelope. Chthonian planet Chthonian planets (, sometimes 'cthonian') are a hypothetical class of celestial objects resulting from the stripping away of a gas giant's hydrogen and helium atmosphere and outer layers, which is called hydrodynamic escape. Such atmospheric stripping is a likely result of proximity to
Hydrogen gas porosity forms whenever molten aluminium comes into contact with water vapor, and easily dissolves into the melt. The gas tends to come out of the solution and forms bubbles when the melt solidifies. The detrimental effects arising from the presence of an excess of dissolved hydrogen in aluminium are numerous. Hydrogen causes porosity in aluminum products leading to many casting defects, reduced mechanical properties like fatigue and lower corrosion resistance. Several methods are used to reduce the amount of dissolved hydrogen from the melt, such as furnace fluxing prior to the casting process or using in-line degasing equipment during the casting
