Perferritic isothermal ductile iron (IDI®) is an intermediate grade between the low-strength grades of austempered ductile iron (ADI) and pearlitic ductile iron (DI) recently developed by Zanardi Fonderie Italy. IDI is produced by heat-treating an unalloyed nodular cast iron. The specific matrix microstructure is called “Perferritic” and consists predominantly of ferrite and pearlite. Compared to the pearlitic grades of nodular ductile iron, IDI combines similar strength with higher toughness as a result of…
