Comparison of Mechanical Properties in Compacted and Spheroidal Graphite Irons

Tribology in Industry, 2016
Mechanical properties of cast irons are governed by the size, distribution and shape of the incorporated graphite particles. In a set of experiments, two groups of cast alloys, Compacted Graphite Iron (CGI) and Spheroidal Graphite Iron (SGI) were investigated. Even if the processes used for their production could be apparently considered quite similar,

Scaling of Planar Sodium‐Nickel Chloride Battery Cells to 90 cm2 Active Area

Batteries &Supercaps, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2025.
Large planar Na β′′ alumina electrolytes are prepared by tape‐casting and die‐pressing. These ceramic electrolytes are used to prepare planar sodium‐nickel chloride cells with 90 cm2 active area, providing a high capacity of 7 Ah. Successful cell cycling is demonstrated at 300 °C at rates up to C/4 (20 mA cm−2) for a cumulative capacity of 3.6 Ah cm−2.

On the solidification of compacted and spheroidal graphite irons

, 2017
A good understanding of the solidification process of a cast material is essential to understand how the combination of alloy composition and the casting process variables combines into the solid cast component and its performance. The wrong combination may result in poor performance or casting defects.
