a graph of Derivative Thermal Analysis (DTA) to determine the chemical composition and selected mechanical properties. For an assessment of the degree of consistency obtained between the examined parameters, the analysis of regression and Pearson's correlation based on a linear model were used. The subject of assessment were 72 melts made in a period from October till December 2006. The best consistency was achieved for carbon and silicon content and for the carbon equivalent liquidus CEL - over 50 % consistency of the obtained results. In the case of hardness HB and tensile strength Rm only 6 and 13,8 % of the results obtained by measurement and DTA rendered the same values. Therefore, it has been claimed that in such cases the data obtained from DTA curve analysis cannot serve as a tool valid in forecasting of the above mentioned properties. Since the analysed parameters have been reported to lack the required consistency, some doubts may raise also the evaluation of recalescence, the value of which is used as a starting point in determination of the inoculant level. Consequently, some changes were proposed in the method used so far to evaluate the effectiveness of the cast iron inoculation process.
