Cast Iron
• Ferrous alloys with > 2.1 wt% C– more commonly 3 - 4.5 wt%C
• low melting (also brittle) so easiest to cast
• Cementite decomposes to ferrite + graphiteFe3C 3 Fe (a) + C (graphite)
– cementite (Fe3C) a metastable phase– graphite formation promoted by
• Si > 1 wt%• slow cooling

Chapter 11 -23
Types of Cast IronGray iron
– 1 - 3 % Si, 2.5 – 4% C– graphite flakes plus ferrite/pearlite– brittleness due to the flake-like graphite
• weak & brittle under tension• stronger under compression• excellent vibrational dampening• wear resistant
Ductile (nodular) iron
– a small amount (0.05 wt%) of Mg or Ce– spheroidal graphite precipitates (nodules)
rather than flakes– matrix often pearlite or ferrite– Ductility increased by a factor of 20, strength
is doubled

Chapter 11 -26
Types of Cast IronWhite iron
– <1wt% Si, harder but brittle– eutectic carbide plus pearlite– large amount of Fe3C formed during
casting
Malleable iron
– the result of annealing white iron castings, 800º-900º C
– cementite→ graphite precipitates, clusters or rosettes
– more ductile

Types of Cast Iron
Compacted graphite iron (CGI)
1. C: 3.1-4.0%, Si: 1.7-3.0%2. Lower content of Mg or Ce3. Worm-like (vermicular)
graphite particles
• higher thermal conductivity• better resistance to thermal shock• lower oxidation at elevated
temperature

Limitations of Ferrous Alloys

Metal Fabrication
• How do we fabricate metals?– Blacksmith - hammer (forged)– Molding - cast
• Forming Operations – Rough stock formed to final shape
Hot working vs. Cold working• T high enough for • well below Tm
recrystallization • work hardening
• Larger deformations • smaller deformations

FORMING CASTING JOINING
Metal Fabrication Methods - II
• Casting- mold is filled with metal– metal melted in furnace, perhaps alloying
elements added. Then cast in a mold – most common, cheapest method– gives good production of shapes– weaker products, internal defects– good option for brittle materials

• Sand Casting(large parts, e.g.,auto engine blocks)
Metal Fabrication Methods - II
• trying to hold something that is hot
• what will withstand >1600ºC?
• cheap - easy to mold => sand!!!
• pack sand around form (pattern) of desired shape

Annealing: Heat to Tanneal, then cool slowly.
Based on discussion in Section 11.7, Callister 7e.
Thermal Processing of Metals
Types of Annealing
• Process Anneal:Negate effect of cold working by (recovery/ recrystallization)
• Stress Relief: Reducestress caused by:
-plastic deformation -nonuniform cooling -phase transform.
• Normalize (steels): Deform steel with largegrains, then normalizeto make grains small.
• Full Anneal (steels): Make soft steels for good forming by heating to get g, then cool in furnace to get coarse P.
• Spheroidize (steels): Make very soft steels for good machining. Heat just
below TE & hold for15-25 h.

Hardenability vs Alloy Composition• Jominy end quench
results, C = 0.4 wt% C(table 11.2a p363)
• "Alloy Steels"(4140, 4340, 5140, 8640)--contain Ni, Cr, Mo
(0.2 to 2wt%)--these elements shift
the "nose".--martensite is easier
to form.

• Steels: increase TS, Hardness (and cost) by adding--C (low alloy steels)--Cr, V, Ni, Mo, W (high alloy steels)--ductility usually decreases with additions.
• Non-ferrous:--Cu, Al, Ti, Mg, Refractory, and noble metals.
• Fabrication techniques:--forming, casting, joining.
• Hardenability--increases with alloy content.
• Precipitation hardening--effective means to increase strength in
Al, Cu, and Mg alloys.
