Summary
This subject represents a wider application basis of the magisterial study in
the field of foundry. It is widening the profound knowledge on the most-
extensive iron alloy used in the foundry practice – especially the high-grade
cast irons such as the grey cast iron, alloyed cast irons, malleable cast
irons
and the spheroidal graphite cast irons.
