This book was released on 2015-03-27 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the surface effects at the interface boundary of metal/sand moulds, and their influence on the surface quality, microstructure and mechanical and anticorrosive properties of high-quality cast iron. It explores utilitarian aspects of the production of high-quality cast iron castings, including thin-walled castings of high-quality cast iron alloys, and examines problems related to the determination of moulding sands and reclaim quality, and their influence on castings. Presenting new material, this book takes into account the influence of metal quality, pouring temperature, solidification time, the quality of moulding sand with the reclaim application, as well the binders of moulding sands, on the formation of the degenerated graphite near surface layers. It also employs the latest research methods, such as a wavelength-dispersive spectrometer (WDS) analysis and thermodynamic calculations, which were carried out on the reactions occurring in the study area. Providing a valuable resource to academics and researchers interested in materials science, metal casting and metallurgy, this book is also intended for metal industry professionals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cast Iron Technology presents a critical review of the nature of cast irons. It discusses the types of cast iron and the general purpose of cast irons. It also presents the history of the iron founding industry. Some of the topics covered in the book are the description of liquid metal state; preparation of liquid metal; process of melting; description of cupola melting and electric melting methods; control of composition of liquid metal during preparation; description of primary cast iron solidification structures; and thermal analysis of metals to determine its quality. Solidification science and the fundamentals of heat treatment are also discussed. An in-depth analysis of the hot quenching techniques is provided. The graphitization potential of liquid iron is well presented. A chapter is devoted to microstructural features of cast iron. The book can provide useful information to iron smiths, welders, students, and researchers.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Thin wall ductile iron and compacted graphite iron castings are becoming more popular due to their high strength to weight ratio, but reduced mechanical properties can be observed if a casting skin forms at the surface. The skin usually consists of a layer of degenerated or flake graphite and a matrix that is inconsistent with the bulk matrix such as a pearlitic rim. The skin is most detrimental to thin wall castings because the skin becomes a significant percentage of the wall thickness. The width and severity of the skin depends on many metal casting processing parameters as well as materials such as sand, coating, and binder types, and is formed by interactions at the mold/metal interface. A test cast design was created using Magmasoft as a modeling platform The final design is a stacked mold design consisting of five molds each containing a 2.5, 4, and 6mm plate separated by semi-cylindrical risers. A methodology to characterize graphite shape was developed using image analysis software. Graphite shape parameters such as sphericity, compactness, roundness, and aspect ratio were measured on ductile iron samples from the University of Alabama and on compacted graphite iron samples from Ashland Casting Solutions using the developed methodology. Sphericity was determined to be the most accurate graphite shape measurement due to its use of the actual perimeter. Using the image analysis characterization along with microhardness, the depth of the casting skin could be determined as well as the presence of a pearlitic rim. The mechanical properties of samples produced from a test casting design created at the Ohio State University were compared to the ASTM minimum standard. Increasing metallostatic height was shown to increase the surface roughness of the samples. This trend was to be expected since a higher metallostatic height allows for deeper penetration of the molten metal into the mold. Little to no correlation was found between the elongation at failure and the metallostatic height and only a weak positive correlation was found between the ultimate tensile strength and the metallostatic height.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applied Science in the Casting of Metals focuses on metallurgical operations. The book first discusses the manufacture of iron and steel. Concerns include treatment of liquid iron and steel; treatment of molten iron between blast furnace and steelworks; and treatment of liquid steel. The text takes a look at casting pit practice, including ingot feeding, hot topping of alloy steels, methods of applying hot-tops, and hot-topping methods. The selection focuses on spray steel making and continuous casting of steel. The process involved in spray steel making; the basic principles of casting of steel; and metallurgical aspects are discussed. The text describes the treatment of cast iron; treatment of non-ferrous heavy metals; treatment of aluminum and magnesium alloys; and treatment of molding sand from molds and cores. The book explains the feeding of steel castings. Topics include development of exothermic feeding; mechanisms of alumino-thermic reactions; applications of exothermics to steel castings; and surface additions. The text is a valuable source of data for readers interested in metallurgical operations.
