18
Q

Why is pearlite good properties wise?

A

Because it is strong and malleable

19
Q

What happens if we cool the iron really fast

A

Martensite or Bainite is formed

20
Q

Structure of martensite

A

fcc but with carbon stretching the structure so no longer cubic

21
Q

Why do we not just try and get properties we want from fast cool in one go?

A

difficult to control, so quench and then temper to change properties

22
Q

What is good about martensite?

A

really big tensile strength

23
Q

How does increasing tempering temperature effect material

A

reduces amount of martensite so more malleable

24
Q

What happens with higher carbon steels in the phase diagram

A

Graphite is also formed

25
Q

Grey iron- what?

A

Graphite flakes in ferrite matrix

26
Q

Grey iron- properties(3)

A

hard, brittle, wear resistant

27
Q

Ductile iron- what?

A

Graphite nodules in ferrite matrix

28
Q

Ductile iron properties(2)

A

strong, ductile

29
Q

White iron- what?

A

Cementite and Pearlite

30
Q

White iron- properties(3)

A

Brittle, compressive strength, wear resistance

31
Q

Malleable iron- what?

A

Graphite rosettes in a ferrite matrix

32
Q

Malleable iron- properties(1)

A

malleable

33
Q

Compacted graphite iron- what?

A

Graphite particles in a ferrite matrix

34
Q

Compacted graphite iron- properties
