6、s of pig iron and scrap iron, and the methods used to cast and cool the metal.</p><p>　　The three primary types of cast iron are gray cast iron, white cast iron, and malleable iron.</p><p>　　Gra

7、y cast iron is primarily used for cast frames, automobile engine blocks, handwheel, and east housings. White cast iron is hard and wear resistant and is used for parts such as train wheels. Malleable cast iron is a tough

8、 material used for tools such as pipes and wrenches. Generally, cast irons have very good compressive strength, corrosion resistance, and good machinability. The main disadvantage of cast iron is its natural brittleness.

9、</p><p>　　Carbon Steel</p><p>　　Carbon steel is made from pig iron that has been refined and cleaned of most impurities. Most of the original carbon in the metal is burned out during the refinin

10、g process. Measured amounts of carbon are then added to the molten metal to produce the exact grade of carbon steel desired. After the steel is poured into ingots and allowed to cool, it is usually sent to a rolling mill

11、 to be rolled and formed into specific shapes.</p><p>　　The three principal types of carbon steel used in industry are low, medium, and high carbon steel. The percentage of carbon :is the most important fact

12、or in determining the mechanical properties of each type of carbon steel. :</p><p>　　Low carbon contains between 0. 05% and O. 30% carbon and is primarily used for parts that do not require great strength

13、. Typical uses of low carbon steel include chains, bolts, screws, washers, nuts, pins, wire, shafting, and pipes. This metal is also known as machine steel, mild steel, and cold-rolled steel. Low carbon steel is tough, d

14、uctile material that is easily machined and welded. It is useful for parts that must be stamped or formed.</p><p>　　Containing between 0. 30 and 0.50% carbon, medium carbon steel is used for parts that requi

15、red great strength than is possible with low carbon steel, such as gears, crankshafts, machine parts and axles. Because this steel has higher carbon content, it can be heat-treated to increase both hardness and wear resi

16、stance. Medium carbon steel is a tough, hardenable metal that has good machinability and is easily welded.</p><p>　　Containing between 0.50 and 1.70% carbon, high carbon steel is used for parts that require

17、hardness and strength, such as files, knives, drills, razors, and woodworking tools. Due to their increased carbon content, high carbon steels can be heat-treated to make them harder and more wear resistant than low or m

18、edium carbon steels. Due to their great hardness, high carbon steels are often brittle.</p><p>　　Alloy Steels</p><p>　　Alloy steels are basically carbon steels with elements added to modify of c

19、hange the mechanical properties of the steel. All steels are alloy steels because each is a combination of elements, including carbon steel, a mixture of iron and carbon. To identify the two groups, one is called carbon

20、or plain steel and the other is referred to as alloy steel.</p><p>　　Alloying elements are added to the molten steel in measured amounts. The desired end product determines the elements and amounts added. Th

21、e primary alloying elements and their effect on the steel are as follows:</p><p>　　Boron —The hardenability of an alloy is increased by boron. Only very small amounts of boron are needed to increase the hard

22、enability characteristics of the other elements in the alloy.</p><p>　　Chromium — When used in small amount, chromium increases the depth hardness of the metal. The more chromium used, the better the alloy r

23、esists corrosion. Chromium is a principal element in stainless steels.</p><p>　　Cobalt — Cobalt is added to an alloy to increase wear resistance and increase red hardness, which is the ability of a metal to

24、maintain a cutting edge at elevated temperature. Cobalt is a valuable addition to some high-speed tool steels.</p><p>　　Lead — By reducing the cutting friction, lead improves machinability. Leaded steels als

25、o have good weldability and formability.</p><p>　　Manganese — Impurities in alloy steels are controlled by using manganese as a purifier and scavenger. When added in larger amount ( 1 to 15 percent) , mangan

26、ese produces good hardness and wear resistance.</p><p>　　Molybdenum — A tough alloy suitable for a wide range of high-strength applications, molybdenum steel permits good depth hardness and strength at eleva

27、ted temperatures.</p><p>　　Nickel — High-strength alloys resistant to both elevated temperatures and corrosion are produced by nickel. When alloyed with molybdenum, nickel steel becomes a very tough alloy, w

28、hich is often used for many aircraft parts. Larger amounts of nickel greatly add to the corrosion resistance of stainless steels.</p><p>　　Phosphorus and Sulfur — Free-machining carbon steels are produced wi

29、th phosphorus and sulfur. When alloyed with carbon steels, phosphorus and suffer produce alloys with excellent machining characteristics.</p><p>　　Tungsten — When alloyed with steel, tungsten produces a vari

30、ety of high-speed tool steels and adds hardenability and strength at elevated temperatures as well as high resistance to wear.</p><p>　　Vanadium — A tough, fine-grained steel that acts as a cleanser and puri

31、fier to eliminate many of the impurities of steel is produced by vanadium.</p><p>　　Tool Steels</p><p>　　Tool steels are a special grade of alloy steels used for making a wide variety of tools.

32、Depending on their composition, tool steels are highly resistant to wear, shocks, and heat. These alloys gener ally contain more carbon, tungsten, and cobalt than do the standard alloy steels, i41 Another principal diffe

33、rence between most alloy steels and tool steels is the control with which elements are added.Tool steels are made with much closer quality controls than are other alloy steels.</p><p><b>　　鐵類金屬</b&g
