Abstract

The mechanical properties of hot-rolled and then annealed ductile iron were evaluated. The deformation of this two-phase material and the effects of the elongated graphite spheres on the mechanical properties and the development of anisotropy of mechanical properties were studied. An attempt was made to describe the anisotropy of tensile strength in terms of the deformation of graphite spheres and of the root curvature, area fraction, and the interbridges that result in disproportional changes of stress concentration, loading capacity, and the tendency to break the interbridges and link the neighboring deformed graphite spheres.
