Abstract:
In order to reveal the effect of vibration solidification on microstructure and properties of gray cast iron in lost foam casting, Y-shaped HT100 gray cast iron was prepared by vibration lost foam casting, and the effect of amplitude on the microstructure and properties of gray cast iron was studied. The results showed that, with the increase in amplitude, the short and thin A-type flake graphite increases, and the austenite structure transforms from columnar to cellular. The hardness, tensile strength, and elongation of gray cast iron first increase and then decrease with the increase in amplitude. The appropriate amplitude in the process of Y-shaped HT100 gray cast iron by lost foam casting is 2 mm, while the tensile strength and elongation of gray cast iron are the highest, with the values of 147.51 MPa and 1.17%, respectively. The change of mechanical properties of gray cast iron is mainly determined by the morphology and distribution of austenite in gray cast iron and A-type flake graphite.

Abstract:
The mixed structures of bainite matrix, austenite and nodular graphite were obtained in nodular cast iron treated by controlled cooling and austempering in electric oven instead of nitrate salt bath. The relations between bainitic morphology and mechanical properties were investigated. Experimental results show that, the nodular cast iron treated by controlled cooling in water bath and austempering has microstructures of upper bainite and austenite, the mechanical properties fluctuate greatly due to its relatively narrow temperature region in processing. The consistency of mechanical properties of lower bainite nodular cast iron is superior to upper bainite nodular cast iron. The comprehensive mechanical properties of lower bainite nodular cast iron are improved by tempering. However, the brittleness increases greatly when martensite appears in mixed structures, while good mechanical properties can still be obtained by tempering at elevated temperatures.

Abstract:
The chemical composition of the metal and carbide phase, hardness, and common mechanical properties of cast iron, ICH28H2 cast iron, a type of high-chromium white cast iron, and the dependence of hardening, annealing, and tempering process types were studied. Therefore, annealing and hardening heat treatments were employed, and the results were compared to measurements in the as-cast state. The metal matrix exhibited content within the range of 16.8% to 19.7% Cr and 71.9% to 76% Fe, while the carbide phase showed 63.4% to 64.7% Cr and 23% to 24.8% Fe. The Cr carbide in high Cr white iron primarily appeared as (Fe, Cr)7C3 type, leading to the calculated chemical formula of the eutectic carbide as (Fe2Cr5)C3. The as-cast white iron displayed a hardness of 53 HRC, which increased marginally to 56.2 HRC after hardening. This suggests that the 28% Cr white iron alloy does not exhibit a significant hardness enhancement compared to the cast state, attributed to its high Cr content. The hardness of the metal phase directly influences the overall hardness change of the alloy, while the carbide hardness is dependent on its Cr content. Abrasive wear studies revealed that 28% Cr white cast iron exhibited superior wear resistance in the as-cast state compared to the hardened state, aligning with research indicating that cast iron demonstrates optimal wear resistance in its cast state.

Abstract:
This paper is concerned with the investigation of the effect of magnesium to sulfur ratio on the graphite morphology and estimation of the ranges of this ratio use to produce graphite cast iron at different section sections. The main factors affecting shape of graphite cast iron are the metallurgical structures and the section thicknesses. Cast iron of different shapes of graphite particles directly affect its thermo-mechanical properties. The nodular shape of these graphite particles such as in ductile cast iron improve its mechanical properties, on the other hand, when the shape of these graphite particles become elongated such as in flake graphite cast iron results in improving its thermal conductivity. In between, the worm-like shape of these graphite particles such as in compacted graphite cast iron, make this type of cast iron to have thermo-mechanical properties in between those of ductile and flake graphite cast iron. The different types of ductile , compacted and flake graphite cast iron were produced by means of plunger method at different section thicknesses and the effect of Mg/S ratio on these types of graphite particles was investigated and its range was established.

Abstract:
The article analyses the literature on the dependence of mechanical properties (tensile strength, hardness, etc.) of grey cast iron castings on the percentage of chemical elements in its composition and on the carbon equivalent, degree of eutecticity, and the ratio of carbon to silicon content. On the example of assessing the mechanical properties of cast iron with lamellar graphite, these dependencies are considered in the probabilistic aspect. It is emphasised that even within the same ranges of percentage of chemical elements in cast iron, as defined in standards or specifications, the values of its carbon equivalent, eutecticity, and the ratio of carbon to silicon content may be different. On the other hand, with different percentage ratios of chemical elements in the cast iron composition, the values of its carbon equivalent may be the same. It is shown that the conclusion about the presence or absence of correlation, in particular, between the hardness of castings and the carbon equivalent of the grey cast iron from which they are made, depends on the interval of variation of this argument. If the variation in the hardness of castings is significant and the interval for changing its carbon equivalent, calculated according to the chemical composition of cast iron specified in the standard for a particular casting product, is relatively short, the dependence of cast iron hardness on its carbon equivalent may not be evident. The disadvantage of the known empirical formulas intended for the approximate calculation of the tensile strength and hardness of cast iron based on its carbon element and eutecticity is the uncertainty of the choice of these indicators. It is proposed to use in such formulas the mathematical expectations (average values) of the carbon equivalent, eutecticity degree and the ratio of carbon to silicon content determined in the probabilistic approach using the Monte Carlo method. It is recommended that the distributions of chemical elements in grey cast iron within their intervals provided for in the standards be considered in accordance with the normal Gaussian law. Based on the information on the chemical composition and properties of grey cast iron with lamellar graphite smelted in accordance with the requirements of DSTU 8833-2019, the dependence of the carbon equivalent and the degree of eutecticity on the ratio of carbon to silicon content, as well as the strength and hardness of castings on these characteristics of the chemical composition of cast iron, have been identified. The formulas for determining the mechanical properties of grey cast iron with lamellar graphite have been calculated. Keywords: cast iron, casting, chemical composition, carbon equivalent, carbon to silicon ratio, degree of eutecticity, hardness, strength.

Abstract:
Cast iron material is a material that has brittle properties and is less able to withstand stress due to the welding cycle caused by flake graphite in cast iron. Because of these problems, in connecting cast iron materials using the SMAW welding method, it is necessary to have heat treatment (preheating) to avoid the welding problems on the properties of cast iron. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of heating and non-heating on the cast iron before the welding process. Therefore, this research will play a crucial contribution as a reference for cast iron welding researchers and cast iron welding process. The method of the research was experimental research, where the measurement results were obtained directly from the specimens. The welding was using an open V seam. The specimen used was cast iron with a thickness of 8 mm. One cast iron was given heat treatment at a temperature of 260ºC and the others did not receive heat treatment before being welded. The welding process used SMAW with CIN - 2 electrodes with a diameter of 3 mm. The test used the bending test on the face specimens according to the American Welding Society D1.1 standard. The results showed that there was an effect of the preheating treatment on cast iron, which that the non-preheating specimens were easier to fracture than the preheating specimens. Thus, it can be concluded that welding with preheating is better than welding without preheating.

Abstract:
There is a need for cast irons with a combined combination of properties in modern conditions. Such properties can be provided by ductile cast iron with nodular and vermicular graphite, which is essentially a hybrid cast iron in terms of microstructure. The article found that ductile iron with nodular and vermicular graphite in terms of its mechanical properties is a rational alternative to malleable cast iron, namely the grade KCh45-6 (GOST 1215-79). Also, the ratio of nodular/vermicular graphite (70…95/5…30%) was determined, which provides the data of mechanical characteristics. Differences in pearlite/ferrite ratio and hardness for ductile iron with nodular and vermicular graphite and ductile iron are shown, providing grade KCh45-6.

Abstract:
AbstractIn recent years, the research of nodular cast iron has been focused on increasing fatigue resistence. In the paper, two types of alloyed nodular cast irons have been investigated – SiMo-nodular cast iron alloyed by 4% of silicon and 1% of molybdenum and SiCu-nodular cast iron alloyed by 4% of silicon and 1.5% of copper. SiMo-nodular cast iron is suitable for high-temperature applications, for example the exhaust manifolds of the combustion engines. SiCu-nodular cast iron is used in various components of tribotechnical units. These components are often loaded by fatigue. The mechanical and fatigue behaviour of both nodular cast iron types has been studied by means of tensile test, impact bending test, hardness test and fatigue tests. Fatigue tests were realised at low frequency cyclic push-pull loading up to 10 million cycles. The relationship between the amplitude of stress and number of cycles to failure was investigated and the fatigue strength was determined. Mechanical and fatigue properties of both nodular cast iron types are correlated with the microstructure of specimens.

The effect of Cu addition on structure and mechanical properties of the gray cast iron is studied. Copper is showed to affect the graphitization process. Copper content increase up to 6 ... 7 wt. % reduces the depth of the chill layer.With further increase of coppercontent the alloys tendency to chilling effectincreases.When the cast ironcontains from 0 to ~ 7% Cu, inclusions can’t be detected using only optical microscopy. In the cast iron with 14.7% Cu, distribution of inclusions has two peaks: 30 ... 40 ... 150 microns and 160 microns. Out-of-shape cupric inclusions of the size of ~ 1 micron are detected in the ledeburite cementite.Submicron inclusions are observed in the lamellar pearlite colonies. With increase of copper content up to ~ 7 wt. % cast iron hardness and microhardness of pearlite increases.

Abstract This study examined the response of low-alloy white cast iron to austempering heat treatment. In addition, it investigated the microstructure and mechanical properties of austempered low-alloy white cast iron. The low-alloy white cast iron specimens were austenitized at 900 °C, followed by quick quenching into a salt bath at 375 °C, and held there for 15 to 120 minutes for austempering heat treatment. Microstructural features were studied by optical, scanning electron microscopes, and XRD analysis. The mechanical properties were determined by hardness and unnotched Charpy impact toughness tests. As a function of those austempering times, a microstructural map was constructed to show how the transformation products develop, quantitatively. The experimental results showed that the austempering heat treatment produced a microstructure consisting of eutectic carbides + ausferritic structure in low-alloy white cast iron. It can be concluded that the low-alloy white cast iron can be austempered, similar to ductile cast irons. Improved hardness and impact toughness values have been obtained in austempered low-alloy white cast iron.

Abstract:
The effect of austempering processing variables on the transformation kinetics, microstructure and mechanical properties of the Fe-C-AI family of spheroidal graphite cast irons, in which the silicon is below 0.2wt% has been investigated. These alloys are described as SO Al cast irons. In the preliminary experiments the spheroidisation and inoculation treatments for SO Al were developed and the microstructure and tensile properties in the as cast and normalised SO Al cast iron at 2.2 and 3.2% of Al examined. The results show that the sequence of spheroidisation of SO Al iron differs significantly from those observed in SG Si iron. Whilst the treatment to introduce some Mg into the melt is required in both irons to alter the growth habit of graphite from flake to spheroidal, the behaviour of the irons towards the subsequent inoculation with various inoculating alloys is quite different. A wide range of mechanical properties of SG Al irons can be obtained, similar to SG Si irons, in the as cast or heat treated conditions. The effects of austenitizing temperatures of 850, 900 and 950°C, austempering temperatures of 300 to 450°C and austempering times of 5 to 300 minutes on impact and tensile properties have been investigated. X-ray diffraction has been used to determine the volume fraction, lattice parameter and carbon content of retained austenite and bainitic ferrite produced under different austempering conditions. Optical and scanning electron microscopy were used to analyse the microstructure. It has been shown that the basic mechanisms for the isothermal transformation of austenite to bainite are essentially similar to those of austempered SO silicon cast irons for both lower and upper bainite. This can be attributed to the strong graphitising effect of aluminium which delays the formation of transformation carbides. However, the higher carbon contents of retained austenite in SG Al iron show the stronger carbide inhibiting characteristics of aluminium compared with those of silicon. The first stage starts with the nucleation of bainitic ferrite from the grain boundaries and adjacent to the graphite nodules. The second stage in upper bainite fonnation is the growth of ferrite, during which carbon diffusion occurs ahead of the ferrite-austenite interface thus enriching the surrounding austenite. This is followed in the third stage by carbide precipitation in the high carbon retained austenite. In lower bainite fonnation the nucleating ferrite is supersaturated with carbon, and carbide precipitation occurs inside ferrite plates. The results show that the rate of fIrst stage transfonnation is higher in SO Al than in the corresponding SO Si iron, and the high carbon retained austenite has a longer life time with a high carbon content. Increasing the austempering temperature was shown to increase structural coarseness and retained austenite content, leading to reduced strength and hardness and improved impact properties and ductility. Retained austenite produced in austempered SO Al iron showed more stability at a high austempering temperature of 450°C, compared to SO Si iron. This was attributed to the graphitising potential of aluminium which suppresses the formation of carbide at that temperature. Austenitizing temperature was found to control the carbon content of both the matrix and of the retained austenite. Increasing the austenitizing temperature was shown to increase the matrix carbon content and to slow the bainitic reaction. Microstructures obtained at higher austenitizing temperature revealed two types of retained austenite: one with a film morphology and the other in a blocky form surrounded by ferrite growing in different directions. The length of bainitic ferrite appears to increase with austenitizing temperature. Austenitizing temperature had a greater effect on hardness in the lower bainitic region and on impact values in the upper bainitic region. The results obtained show that the controlling austempering variables for an SO Al iron of a given starting composition and microstructure are closely similar to those of SO Si iron. The transformation mechanisms are also similar, but the transformation kinetics differ and, to a small extent, microstructural differences give rise to differences in properties between the two types of irons.

Abstract:
This project mainly investigated how the niobium(Nb) content influences the microstructure and mechanical properties of grey cast iron. Considering the mechanism, the study also analyzes the relationship between microstructure and mechanical properties. Generally, the work is based on 127 test bars/samples from two cylinder heads and three batches of plates, which were studied by measuring tensile strength, microhardness, graphite size, carbide amount and chemistry. The result data has been evaluated with statistical methods. The experiments mainly included the preparation of the samples for test and analysis. The mechanical properties in this study are evaluated by the tensile strength of the grey cast iron. Meanwhile, various microscopies were applied to observe how niobium and cooling rate influence the microstructure. Finally, from the analysis results, it tells that the niobium does affect the tensile strength of grey cast iron. Higher the niobium content is, higher the tensile strength is. The computed result based on the data also shows niobium’s strong effect. The faster cooling rate will increase the tensile strength and pearlite microhardness of grey cast iron as well. The carbide amount of grey cast iron can be increased by the addition of niobium content. Furthermore, some future work needs to be done to explain the unsolved problem in this result. The reasons of why a specific position A-2-d of plates has high values of tensile strength demand more microstructure investigation. For the niobium influence, more experiments and data containing a larger range of niobium content also need to be done to prove the mathematics results in this report.<br>Detta projekt undersökte huvudsakligen hur innehållet av niob (Nb) påverkar gråstålens mikrostruktur och mekaniska egenskaper. Med tanke på mekanismen analyserar undersökningen även förhållandet mellan mikrostruktur och mekaniska egenskaper. Arbetet baseras i allmänhet på 127 provstänger / prover från två cylinderhuvuden och tre satser av plattor, vilka studerades genom mätning av draghållfasthet, mikrohårdhet, grafitstorlek, karbidmängd och kemi. Resultatdata har utvärderats med statistiska metoder. Experimenten inbegriper huvudsakligen beredningen av proven för test och analys. De mekaniska egenskaperna i denna studie utvärderas av gråstålets draghållfasthet. Under tiden applicerades olika mikroskopier för att observera hur niob- och kylhastigheten påverkar mikrostrukturen. Slutligen, från analysresultaten, berättar den att niobet påverkar draghållfastheten hos grågjutjärn. Ju högre niobinnehållet är, desto högre är draghållfastheten. Det beräknade resultatet baserat på data visar också niobins starka effekt. Den snabbare kylhastigheten ökar också draghållfastheten och pearliten-mikrohårdheten hos grågjutjärn. Karbidmängden av grågjutjärn kan ökas genom tillsats av niobhalt. Vidare måste vissa framtida arbeten göras för att förklara det olösta problemet i detta resultat. Skälen till varför en specifik position A-2-d av plattor har höga dragkrafter kräver mer mikrostrukturundersökning. För niobinpåverkan måste fler experiment och data som innehåller ett större antal niobinnehåll också göras för att bevisa matematikresultaten i denna rapport.

Abstract:
The large number of vehicles operating on the roads cause high emissions and consequently a negative effect on the environment. When developing and optimizing internal combustion engines, certain requirements must be considered, which are environmental regulations, reduced fuel consumption and increased specific power. In order to meet these demands, an increase of the engine combustion pressure will occur usually accompanied with a temperature increase. During start-up and shut-down of an engine, it is subjected to cyclic thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF) loads. The turbo manifold and exhaust manifolds connected to the engine is also subjected to these thermo-mechanical fatigue loads and thereby exposed to alternating tensile and compression loads. As these TMF loads will increase in the near future due to the development and optimization of internal combustion engines, it is important to understand the limitations of the material for these loads. In collaboration with Scania CV AB in Södertälje, this thesis covers the investigation of influence of nitrocarburizing (NC) on TMF properties of three ductile irons (DCI) labelled HiSi, SiMo51 and SiMo1000 intended to be used for components in the exhaust system. Nitrocarburizing is a thermo-chemical process where nitrogen and carbon diffuses from the process medium into the surface zone of a ferrous metal. The purpose of the NC is to increase the wear properties in contact areas between different parts. The oxidation with and without nitrocarburizing are studied both after isothermal and stress free oxidation tests at 780 °C and after TMF loads with combined cyclic variation of mechanical and thermal loads. In addition, the properties such as hardness, defects, porosity, microstructure, composition of both the materials and of the oxide layer have been investigated. For SiMo1000+NC cracks formed during nitrocarburizing were positioned parallel to the surface edge in the diffusion zone and consequently an increased diffusion of nitrogen into the material, i.e. deeper diffusion depth. SiMo1000+NC showed highest hardness, highest compressive residual stresses and thickest oxide layer. SiMo1000 showed highest resistance against oxidation due to the protective aluminum oxide layer. Oxide crack initiations after thermo-mechanical tests with a protective silicon oxide layer around the cracks for HiSi and SiMo51 and a protective aluminum oxide layer around the cracks for SiMo1000. In materials with nitrocarburizing, these protective layers of either silicon oxide or aluminum oxide were more distributed into the material. In SiMo1000+NC, crack initiations were not oxidized.

Abstract:
New stricter environmental legislation requires lower emissions and fuel consumption of automotive engines. Therefore the fuel efficiency must be increased but this leads to higher loads in the engine. As for the exhaust system it is affected by higher thermomechanical loads. Until today the turbo manifold has been nitrocarburized in order to increase the wear resistance in slip joints with other exhaust components. The problem is that there is no knowledge of how the nitrocarburizing affects the thermomechanical properties of the material. The purpose of this thesis work is to examine the difference in thermomechanical properties with and without nitrocarburizing on the three different ductile irons High Silicon, SiMo51 and SiMo1000 intended for exhaust components. Thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF) experiments were performed on test rods to evaluate difference in number of cycles to failure. In each cycle the test-rod was affected by a combination of mechanical loads and thermal loads resembling those found on exhaust components. Light optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and x-ray radiography were used to examine microcracks and damage mechanisms of the materials. It was found that the nitrocarburizing did not affect the number of cycles to failure in any large extent. Further, it was also found that SiMo1000 on average has the longest lifetime followed by SiMo51 and High Silicon. Although, the difference is small for many loadings and taking a 95% confidence band into account the curves overlap for many loading cases.

Abstract:
In this study the effects of Sn content and isothermal transformation temperature on the ultimate tensile strength (UTS), elongation and hardness of austempered ductile cast iron (ADI) was investigated. To determine the possible effect of Sn on these properties the Sn content of standard GGG30, GGG40 and GGG50 materials were taken as reference, whose chemical compositions vary from 0,016 to 0,050% in terms of Sn. However the Sn content was increased to a maximum of 0,26% for investigating the effect of Sn on mechanical properties. The test specimens were obtained from standard 1-in Y-blocks and austenitized at 925oC for 1 hour and austempered at 350oC,375oC, 400oC and 420oC for 60 minutes in a salt bath. Microstructural examination of the specimens were also done. To determine the amount of retained austenite of the specimens X-Ray analyses were used. As a result of the study The UTS increases up to 0,1% Sn and then levels off. A similar behavior is observed in the variation of hardness. Percent elongation decreases and falls to a minimum around 0,1% Sn, from this point on, a slight increase is observed. Strength and hardness increase while percent elongation decreases with decreasing temperatures.

Abstract:
This thesis focuses on fire resistance of 19th century cast iron framed structures. Based on material property data obtained from a comprehensive literature review, upper and lower bound relationships of the thermal and mechanical properties of 19th century fireproof floor construction materials have been derived. Because these materials have large variability, a sensitivity analysis has been undertaken to investigate the most effective ways of representing such variability. The sensitivity analysis has indicated that the elevated mechanical properties of cast iron should be reliably quantified. The thermal expansion of cast iron can be taken as equal to that of steel as in EN1993-1-2. Variabilities in other material properties have modest effects on fire resistance of cast iron structures and can be safely modeled according the Eurocode material models for similar modern materials (using thermal properties of modern steel for cast iron, using thermal properties of modern concrete for the insulation materials of cast iron structures). In order to resolve some of the uncertainties in mechanical properties of cast iron at elevated temperatures, a total of 135 elevated temperature tests have been performed, including tension and compression tests, transient state and steady state tests, tests after cooling down and thermal expansion tests. These test results have been used to establish the elevated temperature stress-strain-temperature relationships in tension and compression. Afterwards, calculation methods are developed to calculate the bending resistance of cast iron beams and compression resistance of cast iron columns at elevated temperatures. For cast iron beams, a fibre model has been developed to calculate elevated temperature moment capacity of cast iron beams in jack arch construction, taking into consideration non-uniform temperature distributions in the cross-section. The fibre model divides the cross section into a large number of fine layers and for a given curvature and neutral axis position calculates the strain, the temperature, the stress and the force of each layer. It has been found that under historically applied load, the fire resistance of such beams can be 60 minutes or higher. The Monte Carlo simulation method has been used to take into account the variabilities of important mechanical properties of cast iron at elevated temperatures; Young’s modulus, 0.2% proof stress, ultimate strength, corresponding strain at ultimate strength and failure strain in tension and Young’s modulus, proportional limit and 0.2% proof stress in compression. This has enabled material safety factors of 1.50, 2.50, 4.50 and 5.50 to be proposed for target failure probabilities of 10-1, 10-2, 10-3 and 10-4 respectively. For cast iron columns, a finite element model, built using the commercial software ABAQUS, has been used to examine the effects of changing different design parameters (column slenderness, member imperfection, cross section imperfection, degree of axial restraint, load factor and load eccentricity) on fire resistance of cast iron columns. Validation of the finite element model was by comparison of the simulation results against six fire resistance tests, three on unprotected and three on protected cast iron columns. The results of this numerical parametric study indicate that the fire resistance of cast iron columns is generally higher than that of modern steel columns because the applied loads on cast iron columns are lower and cast iron columns have thicker sections than modern steel columns. Comparison of the numerical parametric study results with the calculation results using the steel column design method in EN1993-1-2 has found that the EN 1993-1-2 calculation results are generally on the safe side.

Abstract:
Compacted graphite iron (CGI) is rapidly becoming an attractive alternative material for engine components in the automotive industry, replacing lamellar graphite iron (LGI) in applications where high mechanical strength is desired. However, the gain in mechanical strength comes with a cost; thermal conductivity, process control and machining are three areas that are more challenging for CGI. This generates a need for research regarding various aspects concerning CGI. In this thesis the microstructure formation during solidification and solid state transformation will be the focus of interest. The phase transformations relevant for microstructure formation of importance to properties in CGI were studied. Experiments were performed in an industrial foundry giving this research direct relevance to regular production of CGI castings. Solidification of the grey (graphite/austenite) eutectic will be discussed, focusing on some relevant aspects influencing the graphite morphology of CGI. The formation of graphite nodules has been investigated by studying colour-etched microstructures. In a material containing mainly CGI cells it was found that nodules form either early during solidification as a consequence of high undercooling or late in the solidification sequence due to a combination of high undercooling and segregation of nodularising elements. Solidification of the white (cementite/austenite) eutectic was studied using chill wedges and the influence of some alloying elements on the amount of carbides was examined. To further enhance the understanding of carbide formation in CGI a commercial casting simulation software was used to correlate real castings to simulations. It was found that the alloying elements investigated influence the carbide formation in a similar way as in other graphitic cast irons and that high nodularity CGI is more prone to chill formation than low nodularity CGI. The solid state transformation was studied and a deterministic model was developed. The model divides a eutectic cell into layers, in order to take into account segregation of alloying elements, which was observed to be influential for the ferrite growth. Moreover, the effect of alloying elements on mechanical properties (tensile properties and hardness) was evaluated. Properties were correlated to microstructural features originating from both solidification and solid state transformations. The trends found generally confirmed previous results regarding properties in graphitic cast irons.

Abstract:
High chromium cast iron (HCCI) is considered as one of the most useful wear resistance materials and their usage are widely spread in industry. The wear resistance and mechanical properties of HCCI mainly depend on type, size, number, morphology of hard carbides and the matrix structure (γ or α). The Hypereutectic HCCI with large volume fractions of hard carbides is preferred to apply in wear applications. However, the coarser and larger primary M7C3 carbides will be precipitated during the solidification of the hypereutectic alloy and these will have a negative influence on the wear resistance. In this thesis, the Ti-added hypereutectic HCCI with a main composition of Fe-17mass%Cr-4mass%C is quantitatively studied based on the type, size distribution, composition and morphology of hard carbides and martensite units. A 11.2μm border size is suggested to classify the primary M7C3 carbides and eutectic M7C3 carbides. Thereafter, the change of the solidification structure and especially the refinement of carbides (M7C3 and TiC) size by changing the cooling rates and Ti addition is determined and discussed. Furthermore, the mechanical properties of hypereutectic HCCI related to the solidification structure are discussed. Mechanical properties of HCCI can normally be improved by a heat treatment process. The size distribution and the volume fraction of carbides (M7C3 and TiC) as well as the matrix structure (martensite) were examined by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD). Especially for the matrix structure, EBSD is a useful tool to classify the fcc (γ) and bcc (α) phases. In conclusion, low holding temperatures close to the eutectic temperature and long holding times are the best heat treatment strategies in order to improve wear resistance and hardness of Ti-alloyed hypereutectic HCCI.<br><p>QC 20121130</p>

Abstract:
Austempered Ductile Iron (ADI) is a promising material whose structure is obtained by isothermal processing, i.e. isothermal decomposition of austenite in the bainitic range. It is used in various industrial fields. It is characterized by an excellent combination of tensile strength and ductility, exceeding the properties of quenched and tempered steels in the strength range of 800 - 1500 MPa. Its production is problematic because the ferritic or ferritic-pearlitic ductile iron (SGI), which is the basis for the production of ADI cast iron, must meet demanding metallurgical properties. These are, above all, regular and uniformly distributed graphite spheres in the matrix. One of the ways to influence the metallurgical quality of ADI cast iron is the action of a magnetic field, which leads to the improvement of the metallurgical and mechanical properties of ADI cast iron. The article deals with the influence of a magnetic field on the mechanical properties of ADI in the process of isothermal hardening. In isothermal quenching, after austenitizing, the quench is first cooled to a lower temperature and then the temperature of the quenching medium is raised to a higher temperature. The entire process is carried out in the presence of a magnetic field. The mechanical properties and microstructure were compared with the conventional manufacturing process. In this way, an increase in the mechanical properties and a refinement of the cast iron structure was achieved.

Abstract The focus of this investigation was on examining the effect of cryogenic treatment on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Austempered Ductile Cast Iron (ADI) with an upper bainitic (ausferritic) microstructure. The investigation also examined the effect of cryogenic treatment on the fracture toughness of the material. Compact tension and cylindrical tensile specimens were prepared from ductile cast iron as per ASTM standards and were austempered in the upper bainitic temperature range of 371 °C to 400°C and were cryogenically processed. The mechanical properties and fracture toughness of these materials were evaluated and compared with non-cryogenically treated samples.

Abstract:
Cast iron GG30 (EN-GJL-300C) has excellent mechanical properties and good machinability. It can be used in many industries such as hydraulics, engineering, automotive, oil and gas mining, and processing. It is suitable for the production of compressor and pump components. Return material, technological residue, iron scrap, fractional cast iron, liquid metal, and alloying components can be used as input raw materials in the production of cast iron, the first three were taken into account in the analysis. In practice, it is possible to choose their different ratio. At the same time, their chemical composition is somewhat variable. The aim of the paper is to compare two models, LINEST and DoE, which, with the help of regression analysis, determine the influence of these input raw materials (factors) on the mechanical properties: ultimate strength Rm, hardness HB of the final cast iron. The equations obtained will enable the calculation of the appropriate ratio of these three input raw materials to ensure the required mechanical properties of the final product. The equations obtained using DoE correspond more closely to the measured values than the equations obtained by LINEST, their calculation is more complex and requires the use of software. Based on these equations, taking into account the variability of the input data (for example, the fluctuation of the chemical composition of the iron scrap used), it is possible to estimate the proportion of castings with the required mechanical properties. For example, with a charge containing 40 % of technological residue, 22 % of returnable material, and 38 % of iron scrap with a variability of � 10 %, it will meet the requirements of the standard for tensile strength Rm of 99.85 % of castings and hardness HB of 81.88 % of castings.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Due to its attractive combination of cost, mechanical properties and castability, use of Spheroidal Graphite Cast Iron (SGCI) has lately, to some extent, replaced steel for use in structural and mechanical components in subsea applications. Subsea structures are typically protected by use of sacrificial anodes attached to the host structure. Under such conditions nascent hydrogen is generated on the surface of the protected material due to the cathode reaction, hence Hydrogen Induced Stress cracking (HISC) is a constant concern for subsea components subjected to tensile stress. In this work, the SGCI’s resistance to Hydrogen Embrittlement (HE) has been examined by use of Slow Strain Rate Test (SSRT) and Stepwise Constant Load (SCL) test. Since structural steel is the main competing candidate material for such subsea applications, two grades of SGCI have been compared to two structural steel grades with similar mechanical strength. The HISC tests have been supported by fractography characterization and microstructural examination by use of Optical Light Microscope (OLM) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) in combination with use of Electron Back Scattering Diffraction (EBSD) for grain size distribution measurements.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Degradation of the upper wrought-iron hull of Sub Marine Explorer in the tidal zone has occurred as a result of corrosion, mechanical abrasion, and impact. A larger portion of the lower cast-iron hull that remains submerged is better preserved. Upper hull corrosion rate was determined through direct hull-thickness measurement, examination of the physical and chemical properties of the concretion, and corrosion potential measurements (Ecorr). In general, corrosion rate decreases from top centerline to sand line and from bow to stern. Transects in the interior working chamber show the reverse from bow to stern, suggesting that external tidal flow pattern directly affected the corrosion rate. X-ray diffraction data reveal that iron is trapped in concretion as slightly magnetic gamma Fe2O3 (maghemite) and FeCO3 (siderite). Concretion Equivalent Corrosion Rate (CECR) and direct measurement of wrought iron hull thickness yield an estimated total corrosion rate of 0.066 mmpy (2.7 mpy), or 0.033 mmpy (1.3 mpy), per side, which agrees well with earlier corrosion research in the Panama Canal Zone. Ecorr data and visual observation suggest that the cast-iron hull portion below the low tide level has a slightly lower corrosion rate.

Abstract:
Abstract Carbon steel, a workhorse of many industries, loses its usefulness above 538°C (1000°F) both due to strength degradation and corrosion. Alloy steels with chromium and molybdenum additions have expanded the useful temperature range of high temperature applications. However, with the increasing severity of high temperature environments encountered in modern day industries, there has been a singular lack of alloys, which can provide a combination of properties such as good mechanical strength and high temperature corrosion resistance to various modes of degradation (oxidation, carburization, metal dusting, etc.) up to 1200°C. This paper describes the development of one such nickel base alloy – alloy 602CA (UNS N06025) , which has provided a unique combination of properties by optimization of various alloying elements. This alloy since its introduction to the market in the early 1990’s , has found numerous applications in the heat treat industry, annealing furnaces, furnace rolls, furnace belts, heat treat baskets, hydrogen reformer by-pass ducts, chemical vapor deposition retorts, serpentine grids, direct reduction of iron-ore technology to produce sponge-iron, calciners to produce very high purity alumina, calciners for chrome-iron ore for producing ferro-chrome, calciners to reclaim spent nickel catalysts, catalytic converters and glow plugs in the automotive industry, refineries, petrochemical industries, nuclear waste vitrification processes and many others.

Abstract:
Abstract Ductile iron and cast iron pipe are similar, however there are significant differences in physical properties between the two. Since its introduction, ductile iron pipe has been one of the most popular pipe materials for water systems. While cast iron pressure pipe has not been manufactured in the United States since 1976, it remains a sizeable component of water and wastewater systems across the country as well. Therefore, any efforts related to condition assessment or asset management of metallic pipelines in water systems are likely to encounter both cast and ductile iron pipe. This paper will discuss the material properties of both cast and ductile iron pipe and how they relate to different failure methods for each material. It will also discuss the research that the Ductile Iron Pipe Research Association (DIPRA) has done comparing the corrosion rates of cast iron pipe and ductile iron pipe in the same environments. Graphitic corrosion, unique to iron pipe, will be looked at as well to include a discussion of the strength of these corrosion byproducts in cast iron pipe

Abstract:
Microstructural adaptation of cast iron alloys by inoculation is a well-known practice to swell their mechanical properties. In foundries, several inoculants have been used to refine grain structure, and to obtain uniform distribution of graphite flakes. Inoculation is one of the most critical steps in cast iron production. The effectiveness of inoculants depends on melt temperature, method of addition, type of inoculants, and holding time. In this paper, the effect of Ca-based, Ba-based, Ca-Ba based and Sr-based inoculants on microstructure and tensile properties of grey cast iron IS-210 and spheroidal graphite iron IS-1862 is reported. Results showed both Ca and Ba based inoculants were effective in obtaining uniform distribution of flaky and nodular graphite in IS-210, and IS-1862 cast irons, respectively. But in a case of Sr-based inoculant were highly effective for increase the nodularity of SG cast iron as well as succeed supreme yield strength for both grey and ductile cast iron. The amounts of ferrite in the as-cast matrix are excess with controlled granulometry for elimination of primary carbide in Sr-based inoculant.

Abstract:
This report presents a review of quasi-static and dynamic properties of various iron, titanium, nickel, cobalt, and aluminum metals. The physical and mechanical properties of these materials are crucial for developing composite armoring systems vital for protecting critical bridges from terrorist attacks. When the wide range of properties these materials encompass is considered, it is possible to exploit the optimal properties of metal alloys though proper placement within the armoring system, governed by desired protective mechanism and environmental exposure conditions.
