The research develops and standardises terminology and definitions in terms of melt inoculant: “inoculant“, “molten metal“ / “melt“ / “liquid metal“, “modifying“, “heredity“, “hereditary properties“, “modifying ability“. The research presents those standard terms considering their relations and connections. To justify the development of a required minimum quantity of terms and definitions concerning melt inoculant, the paper considers the stages of their life cycle: design; production; packaging and storage; supply and transportation; consumer (retailer) storage; application; utilisation. Standardisation of terminology will allow ones to continue classification, systematisation, and regulation of requirements for accompanying documentation and quality in melt inoculant supply.
