Influence of Over-Cooling the Nodular Cast Iron to the Graphite Form in the Surface Layer A cast iron is gradient material. This means that depending on the cooling rate it is possible, at the same chemical composition and the physicochemical state of molten metal, to obtain material with a different structure. The connection between the wall thickness of the casting and the speed of its cooling expresses the casting module. Along with the module escalation a cooling rate of the casting is reducing what can cause changes of the microstructure and the increased tendency to the crystallization of distorted graphite forms. Inspections of experimental castings from nodular cast iron with different modules were conducted to the graphite form.

Abstract Determined was quantitative effect of nickel equivalent value on austenite decomposition degree during cooling-down castings of Ni-Mn- Cu cast iron. Chemical composition of the alloy was 1.8 to 5.0 % C, 1.3 to 3.0 % Si, 3.1 to 7.7 % Ni, 0.4 to 6.3 % Mn, 0.1 to 4.9 % Cu, 0.14 to 0.16 % P and 0.03 to 0.04 % S. Analysed were castings with representative wall thickness 10, 15 and 20 mm. Scope of the examination comprised chemical analysis (including WDS), microscopic observations (optical and scanning microscopy, image analyser), as well as Brinell hardness and HV microhardness measurements of structural components.

This paper presents the relationship between the carbon atom diffusion coefficient in the austenite and the temperature during the nodular cast iron solidification under different cooling rates or with different carbon contents. Pouring the wedge-shaped casting explores the influence of cooling rate on the diffusion coefficient. The other part explores the change of the diffusion coefficient with different carbon contents by water quenching to save the organization in the solidification. Results show that both the cooling rate and the carbon content can affect the diffusion coefficient, and it decreases as the cooling rate increases. More attempts were also done to correlate the diffusion coefficient with the temperature in different carbon content. It has been found that the diffusion coefficient decreases as the temperature increase.

In this paper, a new technique to produce cast iron tubes used for liners of auto engines has been developed and examined. The tubes with an outer diameter of 90 mm and a wall thickness of 14 mm were produced massively by horizontally continuous casting. There are the values of casting parameters and constructions of crystallizers recommended for the continuous casting process of cast iron tubes in our paper. The metallographic microstructure, chemical composition and the mechanical properties of the tubes were investigated. The results of our investigations were successfully used for producing cast iron tubes suitable for liners of auto engines.

Abstract This work presents continuous cooling transformation diagrams for different kinds of carbidic nodular cast iron. We investigated the cast iron, chemical composition of which in nodular cast iron allows the obtainment of a metal matrix which consists of: pearlite, upper bainite and its mixture with lower bainite, ausferrite and martensite when the casts were cooled in the mold. The influence of the rate of cooling on the obtained microstructure and hardness of the casts was shown. The work describes the influence of the alloy additives on the curves of austenite decomposition in the carbidic nodular cast iron. Diagrams were plotted which enable an understanding of the kinetics of the transformations of austenite in carbidic nodular cast iron. The diagrams also indicate the possibility of obtaining pearlite, bainite, martensite and ausferrite with the established chemical composition and the wall thickness of the cast.
