Conclusions

  1. 1.

    It is recommended that thermal stabilization of iron piston rings be done in the 600–620°C range, which provides a polygonization structure and the maximum strength and elasticity.

  2. 2.

    Alloying of irons with cerium makes it possible to broaden the thermal stabilization temperature range, to provide stabilization of the polygonized structure, and to strengthen the resistant to recrystallization.

  3. 3.

    Irons with spheroidal and vermicular graphite posses higher elasticity and heat resistance than special gray irons.
