Download or read book Development of Nanostructured Austempered Ductile Cast Iron written by Saranya Panneerselvam and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Austempered Ductile Cast Iron is emerging as an important engineering materials in recent years because of its excellent combination of mechanical properties such as high strength with good ductility, good fatigue strength and fracture toughness together with excellent wear resistance. These combinations of properties are achieved by the microstructure consisting of acicular ferrite and high carbon austenite. Refining of the ausferritic microstructure will further enhance the mechanical properties of ADI and the presence of proeutectoid ferrite in the microstructure will considerably improve the ductility of the material. Thus, the focus of this investigation was to develop nanostructured austempered ductile cast iron (ADI) consisting of proeutectoid ferrite, bainitic ferrite and high carbon austenite and to determine its microstructure-property relationships. Compact tension and cylindrical tensile test samples were prepared as per ASTM standards, subjected to various heat treatments and the mechanical tests including the tensile tests, plane strain fracture toughness tests, hardness tests were performed as per ASTM standards. Microstructures were characterized by optical metallography, X-ray diffraction, SEM and TEM. Nanostructured ADI was achieved by a unique heat treatment consisting of austenitization at a high temperature and subsequent plastic deformation at the same austenitizing temperature followed by austempering. The investigation also examined the effect of cryogenic treatment, effect of intercritical austenitizing followed by single and two step austempering, effect of high temperature plastic deformation on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the low alloyed ductile cast iron. The mechanical and thermal stability of the austenite was also investigated. An analytical model has been developed to understand the crack growth process associated with the stress induced transformation of retained austenite to martensite.

This book was released on 2015-04-17 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even since its discovery in 1948, the use of ductile iron is increasing continuously, this is due to the combination of its various excellent mechanical properties. Excessive amount of research is being carried out to develop even better properties. Austempererd ductile iron is the most recent development in the area of ductile iron or S.G. iron. This is formed by an isothermal heat treatment of the ductile iron. The newly developed austempered ductile iron is now replacing steel in many fields so it has becoming very important to various aspects of this material. In the present work the effect of copper along with the process variables (austempering temperature and austempering time) on the properties (Hardness, Tensile strength and Elongation) and microstructure of ductile iron is studied. With increasing austempering time hardness, tensile strength and elongation are increasing but with increasing austempering temperature hardness and tensile strength are decreasing and elongation increasing. Austempered ductile iron with copper is showing some higher strength, hardness and lower elongation than the austempered ductile iron without copper. In microstructure ferrite is increasing

This book was released on 2020-04-08 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metallurgy is a field of material science and engineering that studies the chemical and physical behavior of metallic elements, intermetallic compounds, and their mixtures, which are called alloys. These metals are widely used in this kind of engineering because they have unique combinations of mechanical properties (strength, toughness, and ductility) as well as special physical characteristics (thermal and electrical conductivity), which cannot be achieved with other materials. In addition to thousands of traditional alloys, many exciting new materials are under development for modern engineering applications. Metallurgical engineering is an area concerned extracting minerals from raw materials and developing, producing, and using mineral materials. It is based on the principles of science and engineering, and can be divided into mining processes, which are concerned with the extraction of metals from their ores to make refined alloys, and physical metallurgy, which includes the fabrication, alloying, heat treatment, joining and welding, corrosion protection, and different testing methods of metals. Conventional metal forming/shaping techniques include casting and forging, which remains an important processing route. Electrodeposition is one of the most used methods for metal and metallic alloy film preparation in many technological processes. Alloy metal coatings offer a wider range of properties than those obtained by a single metal film and can be applied to improve the properties of the substrate/coating system. This book covers a wide range of topics related to recent advancements in metallurgical engineering and electrodeposition such as metallurgy forming, structure, microstructure properties, testing and characterizations, and electrodeposition techniques. It also highlights the progress of metallurgical engineering, the ferrous and non-ferrous materials industries, and the electrodeposition of nanomaterials and composites.

Download or read book A Study of the Turning of Austempered Ductile Iron ADI Grades with Coated Carbide Tools written by Pei Ting and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Austempered Ductile Iron (ADI) is a relatively new material with the highest hardness and strength of any material in the cast iron family. Through the unique heat treatment - austempering, the ausferrite microstructure of ferrite and carbon-stabilized austenite along with graphite nodules is formed. Multiple strength levels can be produced by varying the austempering temperature or time. In general, ADI has a high strength-weight ratio, good toughness, and very high wear resistance compared to other ductile iron grades. In addition, the density of ADI is lower than steel but with approximately the same strength. These unique properties make ADI as an ideal material for manufacturing products requiring light weight but with high strength and toughness. On the other hand, ADI is difficult to machine because of its high hardness. This has impeded the application and the growth of market applications of ADI. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the machinability of different grades of ADI (GR900, GR1050, GR1200) during high speed turning with coolant. Comprehensive turning experiments were conducted under a range of different machining conditions. The influence of cutting speed on tool life, surface roughness, and chip formation were analyzed during turning with coated carbide tools. The turning experiments were conducted on large diameter commercially produced, pre-machined cylinder castings at a constant feed rate of 0.012 ipr and depth of cut of 0.06 inches. The cutting speed was varied for the different grades of ADI, from 250-1000 fpm and tool wear was measured at various time intervals. A Taylor tool life model was developed by measuring the tool life for a range of cutting speeds. This model was then used to generate general turning guidelines for the various grades of ADI based on tool life. Lastly, in order to benchmark the turning of ADI with other materials, turning studies with conventional Ductile Iron grade 100-70-03 were also investigated under similar cutting conditions. The chip formation for all grades of ADI and DI 100-70-03 were discovered in the form of discontinuous c-shaped chips. As expected increasing cutting speeds accelerated the rate of tool wear. The surface roughness trend when machining GR900 and GR1050 are similar decreased cutting speed improved surface finish but a very low cutting speeds the surface finish of grade 1200 ADI also decreased.
