White cast irons are hard, brittle, and unmachinable, while gray irons with softer graphite are reasonably strong and machinable. A fracture surface of this alloy has a white appearance, and thus it is termed white cast iron. In the figure, there is the iron–iron carbide (Fe–Fe3C) phase diagram.

White iron is a type of cast iron characterized by its white, hard, and brittle appearance when fractured. It gets its name from its bright white color on the broken surface, which is in contrast to the gray appearance of gray iron.
11 lip 2024 · White cast irons are indispensable materials in industries requiring high wear resistance and hardness. Understanding their properties, applications, and advantages can help in selecting the right material for demanding industrial applications.
Most white cast irons contain <4,3% carbon, with low silicon contents to inhibit the precipitation of carbon as graphite. It is used in applications where abrasion resistance is important and ductility not required, such as liners for cement mixers, ball mills, certain types of drawing dies and extrusion nozzles.
