Chapter 9, Problem K9.1KP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The meaning and uses of chilled white iron should be determined.

Concept Introduction:

When the confined area of the grey cast iron is chilled rapidly from the melt, cast iron is designed at the place that has been cooled. This sort of white cast iron is termed chilled white iron. The penetration of the chill reduces and the stiffness of the chilled region upsurges with growing carbon content.
