Ductile Iron. Effect of Boron
Ductile Iron. Effect of Boron
(OP)
All, I read that Boron over .002% will promote carbides in ductile iron. I have struggled online and I can't seem to find the scientific source of this number.
I want to understand the mechanism of carbide formation.
Any ideas?
Thanks

You may find some answer to your question from the reference below. It has been many years and I need to refresh,perhaps you can find in papers published by J.F Wallace,it was published in Trans AFS.
