This research characterized the effects of Si on eutectic saturation, the ideal hardening temperature, hardenability, carbide fraction, and alloying element content in the constituents of high-Cr white cast irons to improve performance. Hypoeutectic alloys of 15% and 25% Cr white irons were produced with Si levels varying of 0.4%, 1% and 1.6%Si and poured into 3-inch (75-mm) Y-block sand molds.
