Distribution of Some Active Elements in Primary Graphite Precipitates
The distributions of cerium and oxygen in the matrix and in graphite precipitates of a pure Fe-C-Ce cast iron sample have been studied using scanning Auger microscopy. It is shown that there is no accumulation of any element at the graphite-matrix interface. Cerium was detected in some cases in sphe...

| Sumario: | The distributions of cerium and oxygen in the matrix and in graphite precipitates of a pure Fe-C-Ce cast iron sample have been studied using scanning Auger microscopy. It is shown that there is no accumulation of any element at the graphite-matrix interface. Cerium was detected in some cases in spheroidal graphite precipitates, most often associated with oxygen. Various non-spheroidal graphite precipitates proved to contain cerium and oxygen suggesting a correlation between cerium content and graphite degeneracy. |
