Although the problems of defects and nonmetallic inclusion in metal fatigue are very complicated it is particularly important to view these problems from the perspective that defects and inclusions are virtually equivalent to small cracks. This concept will help us to understand various fatigue phenomena caused by graphite of Ductile cast iron. Therefore in this study different ferrite-pearlite matrix structure and pheroidal ratio of graphite of 70%, 80% and 90% GCD40 , GCD45-2 series have been carried out rotary bending fatigue test estimated the maxi-mum size of graphite investigated correlation. It was concluded as follows : (1) in ductile cast iron which have various spheroidal ratio of graphite the fatigue limit C series of 90% spheroidal ratio of graphite is the highest. While A series of 70% spheroidal ratio of graphite is the lowest (2) fatigue limit was predicted by vickers hardness(Hv) of matrix {{{{ SQRT {area } }}}} of maximum size graphite inputting Murakami and Endo's formula.

In this study, based on the effect of the interaction of fracture mechanics by graphite and fatigue limit phenomena of the microscopic observation various matrix structure, spheroidal ratio, size of graphite and distribution etc. parameters containd with Ductile Cast Iron. Therefore, in this study, different ferrite-pearlite matrix structure and spheroidal ratio of graphite of 70%, 80% and 90%, GCD40, GCD45-1 and GCD45-2 series and three different ferrite-pearlite matrix structure, GCD 45-3, GCD 50, GCD 60 series, all of which contain more than 90% spheroidal ratio of graphite, were used to obtain the correlation between mean size of spheroidal graphite and fatigue strength. (1) 73% pearlite structure had the highest fatigue limitation while 36% pearlite structure had the lowest fatigue limitation among ferrite-pearlite matrix. the increase in spheroidal ratio with increasing fatigue limitation, 90% had the highest, 14.3% increasing more then 10%, distribution range of fatigue life was small in same stress level. (2) (equation omitted) of graphite can be used to predict fatigue limit of Ductile Cast Iron. The Statistical distribution of extreme values of (equation omitted) may be used as a guideline for the control of inclusion size in the steelmaking processes.

Many researchers have studied the eutectic solidification of CV Graphite Cast Iron qualitatively. However quantative studies have not been done. The type of eutectic solidification of CV Graphite Cast Iron treated with CG Alloy (Fe-Si-Mg-5Ti-Ca-Ce) was studied quantitatively through M.D.E. value (Mushy Degree of Eutectic Solidification) = $t_2/t_1)$, where $t_1$ is the difference of the eutectic solidification starting time between surface and center part of the casting sample, and $t_2$ is the time of eutectic solidification of the center part. Following results were obtained. (1) The M.D.E. value of CV graphite cast iron lies between that of spheroidal graphite and that of flake graphite cast iron but is closer to that of Flake graphite cast iron. (2) The M.D.E. value of CV graphite cast iron depends upon CV ratio. (3) The time required for eutectic solidification increases as graphite form is changed from Flake, CV. to spheroidal graphite. (4) The M.D.E. value increases as cooling rate increases.

In this study, fatigue limit of ductile cast iron is evaluated based on phenomena of the microscopic observation, such as matrix structure, spheroidal ratio, size of graphite and distribution. Three different ferrite-pearlite matrix structure, GCD 45-), GCD 50, GCD 60 series, all of which contain more than 70% spheroidal ratio of graphite, were used to obtain the correlation between maximum size of graphite and fatigue strength. It was concluded as fellows. (1) In Ductile cast iron of ferrite-pearlite matrix, the fatigue limit of GCD 60 series with 73% pearlite structure was the highest. (2) From observation of the starting point of crack of all specimens, it is noted that the crack initiates, in graphite, goes through ferrite and propagates into pearlite. (3) A good quality of Ductile cast iron used in this experiment can be checked from uniformly distributed graphite. The negligible interaction effect between graphites was verified by microscopic observation and fracture mechanics investigation in surface and interior of the specimen.

The effect of bonding condition on tensile properties of joints diffusion bonded spheroidal graphite cast iron, FCD60 to Cr-Mo steel, SCM 440 was investigated. Diffusion bonding was performed with various temperatures, holding times, pressures and atmospheres. All tensile specimens were fractured at the bonding interface. The tensile strength and elongation was increased with increasing bonding temperature. Especially, tensile strength of joints bonded at 1123K was higher than that of a raw material, FCD60, and tensile strength of joints bonded at 1173K was equal to that of a raw material, SCM440, but elongation of all joints was lower than those of raw materials. There was little the effect of holding time on the tensile properties. In comparison with bonding atmosphere, the difference of tensile strength was not observed, but elongation of joint bonded at vacuum(6.7mPa and 67mPa) was higher than that of Ar gas. Higher the degee of vacuum, elongation increased. Tensile properties of diffusion bonds depended on microstructures of cast iron at the interface and void ratio. Microstructures of cast iron at interface changed with temperature, because decarburizing and interdiffusion at the interface occurs and transformation of austenite-1 ferrite + graphite occurs on the cooling process. The void ratio decreased with increasing temperature, especially, effected on the elongation.

Spheroidal graphite cast irons which are Fe-3%C-(4－6)%Si-(0－0.5)%Mo were studied to improve not only heat resistance but also mechanical properties. With increasing Mo content, the graphitization was decreased and carbide volume fraction was increased. The graphite spheroidization ratio was not decreased in Fe-3%C-6%Si-Mo system cast iron with increasing Mo content, but that was decreased in Fe-3%C-4%Si-Mo system and Fe-3%C-5%Si-Mo system cast irons. Hardness was increased with the Si and Mo contents. At constant Si content, tensile strength was increased with increasing Mo content, but that was decreased at 6%Si. In the experiment of oxidation, weight gain was decreased as the Si and/or Mo content increased, but increased at 1.5%Mo content.

The influence of different heat treatment conditions on microstructure, mechanical and fatigue properties of Spheroidal Graphite cast Iron with 0.4-0.6% Mn was investigated. 1) Maximum tensile strength was arrived by tempering at about $450^{\circ}C$after quenching. Tempering at higher than $600^{\circ}C$ was changed martensitic structure to ferritic structure and secondary graphites were precipitated. 2) The relationship between matrix hardness and total hardness of the specimens are as following. [HB]$T$=0.7[HB] [HB]$M$+35 Maximum tensile strength was arrived at the total hardness of HB400-450. 3) Endurance ratio decreases with increasing total hardness, and fatigue limits can be presumed from as following. $\sigmaf$=$\sigmat$

SGCI(Spheroidal Graphite Cast Iron), CVGCI(CV Graphite Cast Iron) and FGCI(Flake Graphite Cast Iron) having different contents of Mn($0.25%{\sim}0.85%$) and Ni($0.3%{\sim}1.2%$) were produced, respectively. The thermal expansion and thermal conductivity of the cast iron were investigated in the temperature range of $50^{\circ}C{\sim}300^{\circ}C$. As the graphite nodularity of the cast iron increases, thermal expansion coefficient increases, thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity to thermal conductivity ratio decrease. The thermal expansion coefficient of the cast iron increases with increasing Mn content and decreases with increasing Ni content. The thermal conductivity of the cast iron decreases with increasing Mn and Ni contents.
