Grey cast iron
is an alloy of carbon and steel. Additionally, it also contains iron. Its composition is Carbon (2.5%-3.8%), Silicon (1.1%-2.8%), Manganese (0.4%-1%) and Phosphorous (0.15%).
is an alloy of carbon and steel. Additionally, it also contains iron. Its composition is Carbon (2.5%-3.8%), Silicon (1.1%-2.8%), Manganese (0.4%-1%) and Phosphorous (0.15%).
Grey cast iron
has a high resistance to wear. It has low ductility. And low impact strength when compared with steel. Its machinability is better than steel
Cast Iron
is recognized by the presence of carbon in the form of graphite flakes.
Grey Cast Iron
is plain carbon steel containing carbon percentage between 0.15%-0.3%. It is easily forgeable, malleable, and ductile
Mild Steel
metallic elements added to steel to make an alloy
nickel, chromium, vanadium and others.
nickel, chromium, vanadium and others.
metallic elements added to steel to make an alloy
The steel obtained by adding alloy elements is known as
alloy steel
has a high resistance to corrosion and is one of the best conductors of electricity
copper
copper
has a high resistance to corrosion and is one of the best conductors of electricity
is also another good conductor of electricity and is highly malleable and ductile
aluminium
aluminium is also used to form alloys with?
copper zinc and iron
has a very high resistance to corrosion compared to steel.
aluminum
is used in belt drives and washers
