Influence of pulverized palm kernel and egg shell additives on the hardness, coefficient of friction and microstructure of grey cast iron material for advance applications
Previous studies showed the effects of organic carbon on the mechanical properties of alloys. However, the
mechanisms of graphite films formation have not been given due attention. In the present study, diffusion of
carbon content via heat treatment process to produce graphite films is presented using microstructure. Consequently,
the graphite films formed a protective layer on the heat...
