Abstract

By way of unidirectional solidification, the critical parameters of the transition from a metastable to a stable eutectic in technical cast-iron alloys were investigated. A critical growth rate which was determined for near-eutectic alloys can be attributed to the stable-to-metastable transition. The structural parameters for the metastable eutectic were defined as a function of the growth rates.
