11、ation for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established
12、 has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. T

19、ity with the designations published by several national foundry organisations 123or other publishers 4 . This Technical Report aims to give the designations, precise descriptions and reference micrographs of the matrix structures of cast irons, and facilitate the discussion and to avoid misunderstan
20、ding between manufacturer and purchaser regarding the identification of matrix structures. ISO 2016 All rights reserved v PD ISO/TR 945-3:2016 Microstructure of cast irons Part 3: Matrix structures 1 Scope This Technical Report gives the designations, descriptions and reference micrographs of the ma
21、trix structures of cast irons. It applies to the following types of cast irons: grey cast irons (Table 4.1); spheroidal graphite cast irons (Table 4.2); austenitic cast irons (Table 4.3); malleable cast irons (Table 4.4); compacted (vermicular) graphite cast irons (Table 4.5); ausferritic spheroidal
22、 graphite cast irons (Table 4.6); abrasion-resistant cast irons (Table 4.7). Each matrix structure is defined with explanations and micrographs. Unless otherwise stated in Clause 4, the micrographs shown correspond to samples etched with a solution of 2 % nitric acid in ethanol (Nital). 2 Designatio
23、ns and descriptions of cast iron microstructures 2.1 Ferrite Ferrite also known as -ferrite (-Fe) or alpha iron is a materials science term for iron, or for a solid solution with iron as the main constituent, with a body-centred cubic crystal structure. It is this crystalline structure which gives t
24、o steels and cast irons their magnetic properties, and is the classic example of a ferromagnetic material. Since pearlite has ferrite as a component, any iron-carbon alloy will contain some amount of ferrite if it is allowed to reach equilibrium at room temperature. The exact amount of ferrite will
25、depend on the cooling processes the iron-carbon alloy undergoes when it cools from liquid state. 2.2 Pearlite Pearlite is a two-phased, lamellar (or layered) structure composed of alternating layers of alpha- ferrite (according thermal dynamical condition 88 % by mass) and cementite (12 % by mass).
26、The lamellar appearance is misleading since the individual lamellae within a colony are connected in three dimensions; a single colony is therefore an interpenetrating bicrystal of ferrite and cementite. Pearlite is a common microstructure occurring in many grades of cast irons. If cast iron is cool
27、ed very slowly or as a result of heat treatment, the cementite can occur in globules instead of in layers. This structure is designated as globular pearlite.

28、nown as gamma phase iron (-Fe), is a non-magnetic allotrope of iron or a solid solution of iron, stabilized by an alloying element, e.g. nickel. Austenite is the face-centred cubic crystal structure of iron. 2.4 Acicular ferrite Acicular ferrite is a microstructure of ferrite that is characterized b
29、y needle shaped crystallites or grains when viewed in two dimensions. The grains, actually three dimensional in shape, have a thin lenticular shape. This microstructure is advantageous over other microstructures because of its chaotic ordering, which increases toughness. 2.5 Ausferrite Ausferrite is
30、 a special type of multi-phase microstructure that occurs when cast irons with a silicon content of about 2 % or higher are austempered. Austempering consists of rapidly cooling the fully austenitic iron to avoid the formation of pearlite to a temperature above that of martensite formation and holdi
31、ng for the time necessary to precipitate the ausferrite matrix. This microstructure consists primarily of acicular ferrite in carbon enriched austenite. 2.6 Bainite Bainite is a multi-phase microstructure, consisting of acicular ferrite and cementite that forms in cast irons during rapid cooling. It
32、 is one of the decomposition products that can form when austenite is cooled rapidly below the eutectoid temperature, but above the martensitic starting (M s ) temperature. Bainite can also form from the decomposition of ausferrite upon extended heating above the temperature at which it was formed.
33、2.7 Cementite Cementite, also known as iron carbide, is a compound of iron and carbon, with the formula Fe 3 C. By mass, it is 6,7 % carbon and 93,3 % iron. Cementite has an orthorhombic crystal structure. In the iron-carbon system cementite is a common constituent because ferrite contains maximum 0
34、,02 % by mass of carbon. Therefore, in cast irons that are slowly cooled, a part of these elements is in the form of cementite. In the case of white cast irons, cementite precipitates directly from the melt. In grey cast irons or spheroidal graphite cast irons, cementite forms either from austenite
35、during cooling or from martensite during tempering, or from the decomposition of ausferrite. An intimate mixture of cementite with ferrite, the other product of austenite, forms a lamellar structure called pearlite (see 2.2). 2.8 Ledeburite Ledeburite is an eutectic mixture of austenite and cementit
36、e and is formed when the melt at least partly solidifies according the metastable Fe-C-Si system. 2.9 Martensite Martensite is formed from austenite by rapid cooling (quenching) which traps carbon atoms that do not have time to diffuse out of the crystal structure. The martensite lattice is body-cen
37、tred tetragonal composed of ferrite and carbon. This martensitic reaction begins during cooling when the austenite reaches the martensite start temperature (M s ) and the parent austenite becomes mechanically unstable. At a constant temperature below M s , a fraction of the parent austenite transfor
38、ms rapidly, after which no further transformation occurs. When the temperature is decreased, more of the austenite transforms to martensite. Finally, when the martensite finish temperature (M f ) is reached, 2 ISO 2016 All rights reserved PD ISO/TR 945-3:2016 ISO/TR 945-3:2016(E) the transformation
39、ends. Martensite can also be formed by application of stress in ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast irons (SITRAM effect: stress induced transformation from austenite to martensite). Thus, martensite can be thermally induced or stress induced. 3 Sampling and preparation of samples 3.1 Samples taken
40、 from castings and cast samples The location from which samples are taken should be agreed between the manufacturer and purchaser and should take into account the requirements specified in the appropriate material standard. If an examination report is required, the location from where the final samp
41、le is taken shall be recorded. The sample should be of sufficient size to provide a true representation of the matrix structure in the agreed location from which it is taken. 3.2 Sample preparation Attention should be paid to the careful cutting, grinding, polishing and etching of samples, so that t
42、he matrix structure appears in its original form. Inappropriate preparation can cause alteration of the microstructure and misinterpretations. Sample preparation should be carried out in four stages: 1) sectioning; 2) grinding; 3) polishing; 4) etching. NOTE In some cases mounting of the sample in a
43、 polymeric material can be necessary. The examination of the matrix structure shall be carried out in the etched condition.
