Auto engine designers are turning to a long neglected version of iron that can handle the much higher internal pressures of modern diesel engines. Compacted graphite iron has a molecular structure ...
Cast iron, a widely used iron-carbon alloy, exhibits a diverse range of microstructures that govern its mechanical and thermal properties. Among its variants, compacted graphite iron (CGI) is of ...
BLOWHOLES caused by evolution of gas are relatively seldom encountered in cast iron. Recently, however, cavities evidently produced by hydrogen gas have been recorded 1–3. The surface of the blowholes ...
