Abstract

The growth mechanisms of graphite spherulite both in the nodular cast iron and the high pressuretreated Ni-C alloy were investigated by SEM, HRTEM and EELS. The internal microstructure and lattice image of graphite spherulite extracted from Ni-C alloy were compared with those of graphite spherulite extracted from the nodular cast iron. The ratios of <TEX>$sp^2$</TEX> and <TEX>$sp^3$</TEX> bonding in the respective graphite spherulite measured by EELS, are compared each other. The graphite spherulite of Ni-C alloy had little internal defects and much <TEX>$sp^3$</TEX> carbon species compared to that of the nodular cast iron. Present difference in microstructural features and bonding characters indicated that the graphite spheruites in the high pressuretreated Ni-C alloy grew by different mechanism compared with those in the nodular cast iron.
