[0140] As noted above, applicants have identified a combination of composition and microstructure for castings of high chromium white iron that exhibits corrosion resistance and toughness well suited for many end-use applications for castings.
[0141] The combination identified by the applicant is a high chromium white iron having a composition characterized by (a) a range of Cr and C concentrations and (b) a Cr:C ratio which, when cast and then heat treated, would result in the as-cast form of the casting Within those ranges in which at least a portion of the chromium carbides are transformed into another chromium carbide whereby the end use form of the casting has a mixture of chromium carbides wherein at least one of the chromium carbides is a transformation product of as-cast chromium carbides .
[0142] The amount of conversion product can be selected based on a number of factors including the requirements for the end use form of the casting and the composition of the ca...
