Offsetting shrinkage in Ductile Iron ver 2

Graphite is a hexagonal-closepack form of carbon that can grow in both the liquid and solid forms of iron. In theory, in irons above the eutectic composition of carbon, the graphite first nucleates in the liquid, and then continues to grow in the solid. In irons below the eutectic composition, the graphite does not start
