Characterization of Fracture Toughness of As-Cast Si-Mo- Cr Ductile Cast Iron
Abstract: In the present study, a Si-Mo-Cr ductile cast iron is developed by taking three different combinations, viz. Heat-1, Heat-2 and Heat-3 of the selective amount of silicon, molybdenum, copper and chromium. For fracture toughness characterization, the specimens are prepared from the samples in "as-cast" conditions. The value of static fracture toughness obtained from the experiments for the specimen of Heat-2 with a fatigue pre-crack is 54.49 MPa√ , whereas, for …
