It Increases in tensile strength but decreases in ductility also.

If carbon content increases.
Strength, brittleness and hardness increases.
Ductility decreases as per my knowledge.

Yogendra said:   9 years ago
Because in mild steel 0.25% of carbon present and 5% of carbon present in cast iron, then decrease its ductility.

Carbon percentage increase in steel ductility also increase but strength is decrease.
