What is American Ductile Iron?

The Ideal of cast iron with ductility, long sought by metallurgists, was realized with the introduction of ductile iron in 1948. Acclaimed to be one of the most significant metallurgical developments in this century, ductile iron has had an increasing impact in many industries. Ductile iron has ductility – as the name implies – and […]

Heat treatment of Metals (5)

ANNEALING The primary purpose of annealing is to soften hard steel so that it maybe machined or cold worked. This is usually accomplished by heating the steel to slightly above the critical temperature, holding it htere until the remperature of the piece is uniform throughout, and then cooling at a slowly controlled rate so that […]

Heat Treatment of Metals (3)-Hardening

HARDENING Hardening is the process of heating a piece of steel to a temperature within or above its critcal range and then cooling it in rapidly. If the carbon content of the steel is known, the proper temperature to which the steel should be heated may be obtained by reference to the iron – iron […]

Spheroidal Graphite Cast Iron

Ductile iron, also called ductile cast iron, spheroidal graphite iron, or nodular cast iron. While most varieties of cast iron are brittle, ductile iron is much more flexible and elastic, due to its nodular graphite inclusions.

Heat Treatment of Metals (2)

Steels having less than the eutectioid amount of carbon (less than 0.77%) are known as hypoeutectoid steels. Consider now the transfomation of such a material represented by cooling along line y – y’ in Fig 1.1. At high temperatures, the material is entirely austenite, but upon cooling enters a region where the stable phases are […]

Heat Treatment of Metals (1)

The understanding of heat tratment is embraced by the broader study of metallurgy. Metallurgy is the physics, chemistry, and engineering related to metals from ore extraction to the final product. Heat treatment is the operation of heating and cooling a metal in its solid state to change its physical properties. According to the procedure used, […]
