In order to enhance surface property of brake materials, compacted graphite cast iron (CGI) with non-smooth surface was processed by laser local processing. This study focuses on the influence of the work media on wear resistance and thermal fatigue resistance of specimens. The results showed that when the work media were air and water respectively, laser local processing could enhance surface property of CGI. Changing work media could not change phase compositions of the laser processing area, but refined their microstructures, which enhanced their micro-hardness. By this way, the specimens’ wear resistance and resistance to thermal crack initiation were further improved, while their resistance to thermal crack propagation was influenced by cracks on bionic units.

This paper presents a conclusion drawn by adopting laser processing technology to form striated non-smooth surface of nodular cast iron and study the factors that affect the wear resistance at the normal temperature by means of single factor testing and orthogonal testing. It shows that the optimal conditions of wear resistance are 3-min (wear period),0.98mm (grid space), and 200 r·min-1 (otary velocity).

It is widely accepted that in most commercial hypoeutectic alloys, both static mechanical properties and feeding characteristics during solidification, are extremely linked to the coarseness of the primary phase. It is therefore of critical importance to provide tools to control and predict the coarsening process of the dendritic phase present in hypoeutectic melts. The characterization of the primary phase, a product of the primary solidification, has traditionally been neglected when compared to the eutectic solidification characterization in cast iron investigations. This work presents the morphological evolution of the primary austenite present in a hypoeutectic compacted graphite cast iron (CGI) under isothermal conditions. To that purpose, a base spheroidal graphite cast iron (SGI) material with high Mg content is re-melted in a controlled atmosphere and reversed into a CGI melt by controlling the Mg fading. An experimental isothermal profile is applied to the solidification process of the experimental alloy to promote an isothermal coarsening process of the primary austenite dendrite network during solid and liquid coexistence. Through interrupted solidification experiments, the primary austenite is preserved and observed at room temperature. By application of stereological relations, the primary phase and its isothermal coarsening process are characterized as a function of the coarsening time applied. The microstructural evolution observed in the primary austenite in CGI and the measured morphological parameters show a similar trend to that observed for lamellar graphite cast iron (LGI) in previous investigations. The modulus of the primary austenite, Mγ, and the nearest distance between the centre of gravity of neighbouring austenite particles, Dγ, followed a linear relation with the cube root of coarsening time.
