Cast iron, a widely used iron-carbon alloy, exhibits a diverse range of microstructures that govern its mechanical and thermal properties. Among its variants, compacted graphite iron (CGI) is of ...

Scientists at the Department of Energy's Ames Laboratory have observed magnetic properties typically associated with those observed in rare-earth elements in iron. These properties are observed in a ...
