Abstract
The results of comparative studies of wear resistance of ADI versus high manganese Hadfield cast steel are presented. For evaluation of wear resistance three type of ADI were chosen. Two of them were of moderate strength ADI with 800 and 1000MPa tensile strength while the third was 1400MPa tensile strength ADI. The specimens were cut from ADI test YII type casting poured and heat treated in Institute of Foundry in Krakow. The pin on disc method was used for wear resistance experiment. The specimens had a shape of 40mm long rod with diameter 6mm. The load and speed were 100N and 0,54m/s respectively. It was concluded that the wear resistance of ADI is comparable with high manganese cast steel and in case of low tensile grade ADI and is even better for high strength ADI than Hadfield steel.

Mechanism of carbon influence on the transition from graphite to cementite eutectic in cast iron
In this work an analytical solution is used to explain mechanism of carbon influence on the transition from graphite to cementite eutectic in cast iron. It is found that this transition can be related to (1) the nucleati...
