Third. 3. EUTECTIC TRANSFORMATION AND NUCLEATION OF CAST IRON Both gray cast iron and ductile iron are EUTECTIC FE-C alloys, and eutectic transformation is the most important step in the solidification process. Although primary austenite is precipitated in hypoeutectic cast iron, eutectic cast iron, and hypereutectic cast iron, however, the eutectic transformation does not rely […]
