A Study on Conversion of Higher Sulfur Pig Iron to Ductile Iron Using In-Mold Treatment Technique

Processing of iron will never stop. The demand of selected iron properties is depend on market requirement. Conventional ductile iron is one of the main components for industrial used. It is developed to have different microstructure compare to ordinary iron. It has nodule graphite compare to flake...
