2. Please write your student I.D. on the answer sheet (NOT SSN)
3. Please mark your answers clearly
4. Do not leave a question unanswered – there is no negative marking
5. Hand in both question and answer sheets at the end of the exam – the questions will be posted on the website after the last conflict exam
TOPICSCASE HARDENING JOMINY TEST (HARDENABILITY)
CAST IRONS
CORROSION
POLYMERS
CASE HARDENING
Steel alloy is exposed to a carbonaceous (usually CO) or nitrogenous (usually NH3) atmosphere at elevated temperature so that the “case” becomes carbon or nitrogen rich.- In nitriding, Fe2N forms which is very hard. In carburizing, the alloy is then quenched and tempered to get a hard casing.
In induction hardening, a high frequency AC is used to heat the alloy surface past its austenitizing temperature and the alloy is then quenched and tempered.
JOMINY TEST hardenability: ability to form martensite!
(not hardness) specimen is fully austenitized max. cooling at the quench end, decreases
with distance from quenched end. hardness is measured as a function of
distance from quenched end.
JOMINY TESTCooling rate, “severity of quench”, is
dependent on: quenching medium:
» Water --- most severe » Oil» Air --- least severe
specimen size and geometry: » as surface area / mass increases, more
rapid cooling rates are achieved (rounded shapes)
JOMINY TESTHardness at the center of a 2” diameter bar quenched in water with a little agitation for 1040, 3140 and 4340 steels?
CAST IRONS Ferrous alloys with 2.5 < % wt C < 5.5 and
other alloying elements. For slow cooling rates,
Fe-C (as opposed to Fe-Fe3C) phase diagram:

CAST IRONS
Types:» Gray cast iron graphite flakes in an
or P matrix, depending on the cooling rate and % Si
- Weak and brittle in tension, stronger and more ductile under compression
- Effective in damping vibrations - High fluidity at casting temperature, low casting shrinkage
CAST IRONS» Nodular (ductile) cast iron - flakes become spheres, with addition of
small amounts of Mg and/or Ce before casting
- Several times stronger than gray cast irons
- High ductility: % EL up to 40
» White cast iron - almost all C is as CM in P matrix - Extremely hard: wear resistant
- Very brittle: unmachinable
» Heating white cast irons to ~850 C for ~30 hrs gives Malleable Cast Irons
- Graphite clusters in an or P matrix - Mechanical properties: Relatively high strength and malleability

CORROSION
Requirements:» Anode» Cathode» Electrolyte» Electrical
connection
• Anode: oxidation CORROSION• Cathode: reduction
CORROSION
Classes of electro-chemical corrosion:
- Uniform attack - Galvanic corrosion- Crevice corrosion - Pitting- Intergranular corrosion - Selective leaching- Erosion-corrosion - Stress corrosion
CORROSIONMACRO~ Dissimilar metals - (Galvanic series); A galvanic series
determines which metal will act as the anode – the lower the metal in the series, the more anodic it is.
~ Same metal in different electrolytes - Crevice / pitting corrosion~ Deformation - Non-homogeneous residual stress~ non-passivated vs. passivated metal couple
CORROSIONMICRO (single material)~ grain boundary – anodic wrt bulk
(high energy regions)~ orientation difference in grains~ presence of different phases~ segregation
CORROSION
WELDING
CORROSION Remedies: ~ Environmental alteration
~ Protective coating - anodizing (Al coating) - galvanizing (Zn coating)
~ Material selection (i.e. passivated material usage)
~ Design (i.e. keep the ratio [anode area / cathode area] large
~ Cathodic protection: -Electrically connect the metal to be protected to
another metal (sacrificial anode) that is more reactive in the particular environment. Ex: Zn, Mg.- Connect the negative terminal of an external DC source to the metal to be protected and the positive terminal to an inert anode like graphite.
POLYMERS Polymers: long chains of covalently bonded small,
successively repeating units called monomers. Classification of polymers:
- Based on monomer/s: homopolymer, copolymer, blend.
