Inoculation could be considered as a common liquid-state treatment for all commercial cast irons (gray/compacted/ductile irons), while modifiion is essential to produce compacted graphite iron (intermediate level) and ductile iron.
2020/10/20· Nodular cast iron obtains nodular graphite through spheroidization and inoculation treatment, which effectively improves the mechanical properties of the cast iron, especially the plasticity and toughness, so as to obtain higher strength than carbon steel. Nodular cast iron is a high-strength cast iron material developed in the 1950s.
The necessity of inoculation for different types of cast iron is determined by the thermodynamic nature of the molten iron as determined by the iron-carbon equilibrium diagram, which exhibits both
The composite inoculant composed of Ca, Ba, Sr and rare earth elements added on the basis of 75sife alloy can prolong the inoculation decay time and improve the microstructure and properties of castings, especially for large section ductile iron castings.

Inoculation of Cast Iron. The addition of an inoculant to molten cast iron is advisable and even necessary in most cases, in order to be able to produce castings which fulfill the quality requirements. The mechanical. properties and machinability of cast iron with lamellar, compact and nodular graphite greatly.
What is meant by inoculation of cast iron? “Inoculation of molten cast iron” refers to the introduction of nuclei into the melt in order to influence the solidifiion process or structural formation in the casting in a specific way. Nuclei are fine particles that are ≤ 4
Inoculation could be considered as a common liquid-state treatment for all commercial cast irons (gray/compacted/ductile irons), while modifiion is essential to produce compacted graphite iron (intermediate level) and ductile iron.
Inoculation is a means of controlling the structure and properties of cast iron by mini- mizing undercooling and increasing the nuer of graphite nucleation events during solidifiion.

In order to ensure uniform and good casting quality, inoculation treatment is essential. The mechanical properties of gray cast iron largely depend on its microstructure. Gray cast iron without inoculation treatment has unstable microstructure, low mechanical properties, and white fractures easily appear in the thin wall of the casting.
