In this e-Learning module, the focus will be on the factors that affect solidification shrinkage in ductile iron. Topics that will be discussed: the differences between pure iron and graphitic cast irons; the unique characteristics of ductile irons; metal and mold factors that affect shrinkage defect formation; effects of solidification shrinkage on casting quality and defect appearance; and some steps and considerations to reduce the risk of solidification shrinkage defects. By the end of this module, you will be able to identify two control measures to reducing solidification shrinkage in ductile irons. (0.1 CEU)
