What is composition of Wrought Iron ?

Wrought iron:
Wrought is made by heating cast iron with haematite (Fe2O3) which oxidises C to CO, S to SO2 Si to SiO2, P, P4O10 and Mn to MnO . Where CO and SO2 escapes, manganese oxide (MnO) and Silica (SiO2combine to form slag.
Similarly phosphorus pentoxide combines with haematite to form ferric phosphate slag.

What is composition of Grey Cast Iron ?

Grey Cast Iron: However when re molted pig iron is slowly cooled, Grey cast iron is results. In this form of cast iron carbon is found to be combined form of Graphite.

What is composition of White cast iron ?

White Cast Iron: When re molted pig iron is suddenly cooled, white cast iron is results. In this form of cast iron carbon is found to be combined form as cementite (Fe3C).
