Ledeburite means?

Salahuddin said:   5 years ago
The answer is simply eutectic. If it is less than 4.3% then hypo eutectic and more than 4.3% then hyper eutectic.

The eutectic reaction occurs at a temp of 1146 'C and the resulting product is ledeburite which contains austenite and cementite.

Liquid decomposes into two solids on cooling.

1.6% c at the temp 1130 °c for the Eutectic cast iron.

They are called eutectic cast iron, it contains only leadburite.

Ronak Ramjiyani said:   9 years ago
Hypo-eutectic cast irons contain between 1.7% - 4.3% C carbon alloys.

Aman kumar said:   9 years ago
Hypo-eutectic cast irons contain less than 1.7 - 4.3 C carbon alloys.
