There is a significant increase in industrial applications of ferritic high-Si ductile cast irons (3 - 6%Si), such as the automotive and maritime industries, wind power technology and mechanical engineering. Ferritic high-Si ductile cast irons replace un-stable mixed ferrite-pearlite matrix, with a unique combination of high elongation, strength an...
