Magnetic Properties Difference between Wrought vs Cast
Magnetic Properties Difference between Wrought vs Cast
(OP)
I am looking for into casting parts to save money with the neat net shape however the magnetics of the part are very important to how it operates. Any information on the differences, plus and minus.
Thanks
Thanks

What is the applicaiton and how important are the magnetic properties? There is going to be a lot of variablitly since casting/drawing processes are not focused on magnetic properties.

Given the lack of details in the request, I gave a generic answer.
Obviously chemistry plays a big role, a block of cast iron with all that carbon will have significantly different properties than 1020 steel. Cooling rate of the cast block (either 1020 steel or cast iron) is very important too.
Of course, I think it is pretty rare to find 1020 steel in the as-cast state.

I am looking for information on the magnetic properties of different micro structural phases in steel and their correlation to electron structure. For eg : alpha ferrite and delta ferrite both have bcc structure but different magnetic capacities.Also what are the factors influencing the magnetic capacity of different phases in steel.
Thanks in anticipation.

I suppose alloying may stabilize it for room temperatures, but then those alloying elements would likely influence the magnetic properties.

I recall that Bozorth talks extensively about the specific properties of various phases. Is this not in enough detail for you?
