These are iron-carbon alloys (and a form of cast iron) with carbon contents in excess of 2%, generally in the range 2 to 4% with the addition of about 1% silicon. They differ from steels in that the ...

Cast iron, a widely used iron-carbon alloy, exhibits a diverse range of microstructures that govern its mechanical and thermal properties. Among its variants, compacted graphite iron (CGI) is of ...
