A CONTEMPORARY MONOGRAPH ON SILICON CAST IRONS MICROSTRUCTURE. From atom scale to casting.
This monograph finds its foundation in a simple fact: there is a paradigm with cast irons, which is that these
Study of Graphite Nucleation in High Sulfur Ductile Irons
It is well known that sulfur is an excellent promoter of graphite and plays an important role in its formation.
Improved mechanical properties in A356-T6 alloy using ablation technology
Ablation is a technology different enough from casting to ask for a revision of some conventionally comparable factors like the
Determination of Microshrinkage Risk Index in Ductile Cast Iron Production
One recurrent problem in the foundry industry producing ductile iron castings for automotive industry is the presence of defects of
