Mechanical characteristics of nodular graphite cast iron has found to tan higher utilization to the gray cast iron. So, Nodular graphite cast iron is used as a basic material in mechanical industry. Great demand of Nodular graphite cast iron is expected to increase due to the sharp development in mechanical and automobile industry. Therefore, Nodular graphite cast iron requires not only good quality product but experienced skills in manufacturing process. But there exist a lot of difficulties to manufacture nodular graphite cast iron than gray cast iron in manufacturing process. In this study, the following topics are studied for good quality product of nodular graphite cast iron. $\circled1$ Activities of managerial staff. $\circled2$ Qualite control method in manufacturing process. $\circled3$ Manufacturing process system. As a result of the study, a intensive Quality control activities should be applied and reinforced at each stage of manufacturing process rather that at the last stage of final product.

Low cycle fatigue life of spheroidal graphite cast iron is determined by the morphological parameters of internal graphite. The aim of this study is to clarify the effect of the number of nodular grain of spheroidal graphite cast iron on low cycle fatigue life. Two specimens that have identical average nodular grain size by changing nodular grain volume fraction and different number of nodular grain count was tested. In this paper, the parameter governing fatigue life through fatigue test, the number of nodular grain seriously affect fatigue life and nodular grain size is no longer governing parameter of it.

Zn을 많이 함유하는 銅scrap(자동차용강판, Zn표면처리강판 등)을 이용하여 구상흑연주철을 제조한 경우 구상화가 제대로 이루어 지지 않았다. Sb을 많이 함유하는 銅scrap을 이용하여 구상흑연주칠을 제조한 경우에는 기지 층의 퍼얼라이트량이 증가하였다. 퍼얼라이트량이 증가하면 인장강도 및 경도는 증가하지만 연산율은 감소하였다. Mn, Cr을 많이 함유한 銅scrap(기계구조용강판, 가단주철)을 이용하여 구상흑연주출을 제조한 경우에는 피얼라이트량이 증가하였으며, 인장강도 및 경도도 증가하였다.

구상흑연 주철과 고압처리된 Ni-C 합금에서 SEM, HRTEM, EELS 등을 이용하여 구상흑연 입자의 성장 기구를 연구하였다. 두 시료로부터 추출된 각각의 구상흑연입자의 내부 미세조직 및 격자상이 서로 비교되었으며 EELS를 이용하여 각 구상흑연 입자 내부에서 흑연결합을 하는 $sp^2$와 다이아몬드 결합을 하는 $sp^3$의 비가 측정되었다. 구상흑연 주철에서의 구상흑연 입자는 뚜렷한 결정립계면 및 조대한 결함을 갖고 있었다. 반면에 고압처리된 Ni-C 합금 내부에 생성된 구상흑연 입자는 구상흑연 주철의 것에 비해 미세조직 내부의 결함이 현저히 적었으며 안정한 다이아몬드 결합을 하는 $sp^3$ 결합을 다량 함유하고 있었다. 본 실험에서의 구상흑연 입자 내부의 미세조직 및 결합 특성상의 차이는 고압처리된 Ni-C 합금에서의 구상흑연 입자가 구상흑연 주철에서의 구상흑연 입자와는 다른 기구에 의하여 성장하였다는 것을 보여주는 증거이다.

It is required the superior materials for the parts of machines or structures, which could be endurable in severe load and environment. According to advancement of casting technology, nodular graphite cast iron is used as suitable for such condition. But nodular graphite cast iron is scattering of fatigue strength and low reliability. Therefore in this study, the effect of matrix structure and number of nodular graphite on the initiation of fatigue crack and fatigue strength. It was found that the material which has relatively high ferrite volume fraction was more easily cracked than other materials and fatigue limit was low. The material which has not found pinhole on the surface, the crack was initiated in graphite went through ferrite and propagated into through graphite, but separated graphite and ferrite grain boundary and combined with other cracks to fro large one.

The matrix changes and graphite formation in high manganese cast iron (Fe-12Mn-3.5C) are studied with increasing nickel and silicon content. Also, the decomposition of carbides and graphite precipitation are studied by adequate heat treatment.The results obtained in this work are as follows. 1. In high manganese cast iron, fine flakes graphite appeared by adding 5 wt% nickel and A-type flakes graphite can be obtained by adding 7 wt% nickel. 2. Nodular graphite are obtained by graphite spheroidizing treatment with same melt. 3. In high manganese cast iron containing 7 wt% nickel, full austenitic matrix with nodular graphite can be achieved by water quenching after 10 hours' solution heat treatment at $1050^{\circ}C$ in case of containing 2.0 wt% silicon, and 6 hours' at the same temperature in case of containing 2.5 wt% silicon.

It is well known that the graphite flakes become spherulite, when a suitable amount of nodulizing element, such as cerium or magnesium, is added to the cast iron. The change of graphite from flake to nodular shape improves not only the tensile strength but the ductility as well. However, the mechanism of spheroidization of graphite in cast iron has not yet been clearly understood, and various theories proposed by a number of investigators were such that it may be due to the special nucleation effect, prevention of flake formation by the adsorption of magnesium vapour on the graphite surface or file surface free energy difference between plain graphite and magnesium-adsorbed graphite. Regardless of the speculations of spheroidizing mechanism of the graphite in the cast iron, the final phenomenon comes to the conclusion that it may be due to the lack of wettability between graphite and iron matrix. In order to collaborate this fact through an experimental method, the authors have constructed a vacuum arc furnace for the wettability measurement as its first step. Our study and experiments were then directed to the comparison of the wettability between iron and graphite on the two cases (namely, the one where magnesium was preliminarily coated on the graphite surface and the other not coated), by means of contact angle measurements. The result was such that a significant difference of the contact angles has been shown between the above two cases. indicating the spheroidization of graphite which might have resulted from the lack of wettability between magnesium-adsorbed graphite and iron matrix.

Differences in hardness and microstructure between surface and area at 0.3 mm below the surface after quenching and tempering of ductile cast iron for rear planet carrier of automotive transmission have been investigated. Microstructure of ductile cast iron consisted of ferrite, pearlite, and nodular graphite. The amount of pearlite increased with going down to the half-thickness area. It was found that Cr and Mo segregated to the pearlite and the pearlite transformed to the harder martensite during quenching. The martensite was more resistant to the decomposition to ferrite and cementite during tempering because of segregation of Cr and Mo, resulting in the harder tempered martensite. Consequently, the hardness of the surface with less amount of pearlite, corresponding to the harder martensite in the quenched and tempered microstructure, was lower than that of the area at 0.3 mm below the surface.

The effects of copper as an alloying element on the microstructure of Compacted Vermicular graphite cast iron which was treated with Mg-REM spheroidizer have been studied. With the increase of copper content up to 2.0wt.%, the following results were obtained; First, the ratio of residual magnesium content in the as-cast iron has been found to be increased, possibly due to the decrease of sulfur content in the melt. Thus, the morphology of graphite in the as-cast iron has been found to be more nodular type. Second, the proportion of pearlite in the matrix has been found to he increased, however the matrix being with free carbide precipitates in the copper range of 1.2wt.% to 2.0wt.%. Third, the tensile strength of the as-cast iron in the temperature up to $400^{\circ}C$ was increased.
