The properties of heat-resistance are the most important properties of gray iron castings using in air at high temperature. It seems that the S-H cast iron developing the structures refined extremely by titanium is provided for a advantage of growth-resistance.
The authers investigated to confirm the degrees of growth-resistance of cast irons such as S-H cast iron, nodular graphite cast iron, coarse flake graphite cast iron, common grade gray cast iron, special pearlitic cast iron and others. The growth values offered are measured by using a dilatometer and certified by microscopical observation and others.
The results obtained are as follows.
(1) Provided that the heating and cooling are repeated continuously six times between 600°C and 900°C at 7°C/mn, the average values for the rate of growth are as follows ; coarse flake graphite cast iron; 1.46%, common grade gray cast iron ; 1.12%, S-H cast iron ; 0.76%, special pearlitic cast iron ; 0.55%, nodular graphite cast iron ; 0.44%.
(2) Providad that tha heating at 7°C/mn the holding at 900°C for 5 hours and then the cooling at 7°C/mn are proceeded according to such orders, the average values are as follows : coarse flake graphite cast iron ; 1.56%, common grade gray cast iron ; 1.08%, S-H cast iron ; 0.45%, special pearlitic cast iron ; 0.38%.
(3) The thickness of decarburized layer consists of ferrite, may be developed roughly accordind to such values of growth.
(4) For S-H cast iron developing the structure refined extremely such as beforementioned increases the degrees of resistance aganist internal oxidation it can be noted that S-H cast iron takes almost the same growth degrees as special pearlitic cast iron and nodular graphite cast iron.
