Microstructural study and wear behavior of ductile iron surface alloyed by Inconel 617

Microstructural evolution and bonding characteristic in multi-layer laser cladding of NiCoCr alloy on compacted graphite cast iron

“…Yan et al (2010) reported that some acicular martensite and ledeburite, characterised by high hardness and poor toughness, were formed at the interface and in random locations on the laser clad layer on a ductile iron sample. Similar results were found by Arabi Jeshvaghani et al (2014): they found eutectic ledeburite and a martensite microstructure in the partial melted zone (PMZ) and only a martensitic microstructure in heat affected zone (HAZ). Ocelík et al (2007) used a 2 kW continuous Nd:YAG laser to fabricate Co-based coatings on compacted graphite and gray cast iron substrates, and established empirical relationships between the process parameters (i.e.…”

An Analysis of the Weldability of Ductile Cast Iron Using Inconel 625 for the Root Weld and Electrodes Coated in 97.6% Nickel for the Filler Welds

“…Figures 1-8 show the microstructures produced by the different types of welds. Figure 9 shows the different types of fractures that occurred during standard testing [9,10].…”

A Novel Approach for Composite Wear Plate Fabrication by Using Vertical Centrifugal Casting

“…Spheroidal graphite cast iron is used as a matrix material in bearings, camshafts, pistons, and cylinders of machine tools due to its castability, workability, and good mechanical properties. It was stated that the wear behaviour in heavy working conditions was limited and this problem can be solved by modifying the surface properties [9]. This was supported by a study which reported a significant increase in wear resistance which was observed on the piston surface by using SiC for surface modification [10].…”
