Gray Iron
Ductile Iron
Mg or Ce causes the graphite to form nodules,
or spheres. Can have pearlite or ferrite
surrounding. Can have high strength and
reasonable ductility. raphite as nodules not
flakes, matrix often pearlite tronger but less
ductile
White Iron
Maleable Iron
Heat white iron to 800-900C for long times
in neutral atmosphere. Cementite forms
graphite clusters. Strong and reasonably
ductile
