Austempered ductile iron has been considered as a substitution to replace conventional
steel castings, steel forgings and even aluminum in many applications. Its excellent …

Austempered ductile iron (ADI) is a type of graphite cast iron produced by an isothermal heat
treatment process. It is an alternative to traditional steel castings and forgings and even …

Fe-based hardfacing alloys are widely used to protect machinery equipment exposed to
different loading situations where abrasives play a dominant role in restricting lifetime of …

Carbidic austempered ductile iron is a family of ductile cast irons produced with carbides
that are subsequently austempered to exhibit excellent wear resistance, which is a new type …

The aim of the present work is to find the critical temperature for different alloys and show
how the wear mechanisms change depending on different microstructure once the critical …

The effects of molybdenum on the microstructure, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance
of carbidic austempered ductile iron were studied. The results show that the microstructures …

This work aims to evaluate the mechanical properties and the abrasive wear resistance of a
group of nodular cast irons and a white cast iron. The samples were produced and heat …

To extend the lifetime of the sinter grate used to crush the sinter cake into smaller pieces for
steel fabrication, a study was undertaken to investigate which wear processes are primarily …

The in-service cutting edge of a mining loader bucket was investigated and its wear
behavior compared with samples tested in the laboratory to assess how well the wear …

The application of a deep cryogenic treatment during the heat-treatment processes for
different types of steels has demonstrated a significant influence on their mechanical and …
