Abstract:Understanding spheroidal graphite growth in cast irons is a long standing problem for which several mechanisms have been proposed. During the last decade, observations using transmission electron microscopy added new information about the stacking of graphite layers, leading eventually to propose other mechanisms than previously thought of such as repeated 2D-nucleation of new growth blocks and their lateral extension at the surface of the spheroids. Furthermore, it has been recently realized that elements kno… Show more
