A Novel Material Used In Automotive Industry: Compacted Graphite Iron, Ajit Behera Aug 2012

A Novel Material Used In Automotive Industry: Compacted Graphite Iron, Ajit Behera

Ajit Behera

In recent decades, materials have been a key to increase the performance of automotive parts which leads to development of new materials. The main objective is to achieve increase in quantity and quality of automotive parts produced with optimum performance during their life cycle. Cast iron has remained a competitive material due, in part, to its low production cost. In fact, among the cast iron group, one of the alternatives is lightweight alloys, that is, compacted graphite iron (CGI). Nowadays, it is accepted that CGI can effectively reduce the total weight of an automobile by virtue of its high strength- …

The Natural Composite: Spheroidal Graphite Iron, Ajit Behera Jan 2011

The Natural Composite: Spheroidal Graphite Iron, Ajit Behera

Ajit Behera

The conventional materials are nowadays not sufficient to cater to the variety of uses and exposure to various environments that may take place while they are put into use. Hence this leads to the development of composites, which nearly suffice the above two conditions. Composite material is a material composed of two or more distinct phases (matrix phase and reinforcing phase) and having bulk properties significantly different from those of any of the constituents. In this developing age for iron industry there is large demand for spherodial Graphite iron (S.G. Iron). S.G. Iron also known as a composite in which …
