The typical carbon content of cast iron is 2-4 %
The size of carbon atom is twice the size of tetrahedral voids and they don't fit into the voids such that it results into a strong strain field.
So it exceed solubility.

Cast iron just like steel has wide applications. It is an alloy with carbon content in excess of about 2%C (usually between 2.5 and 4.3%C) and Si content in excess of 0.5%. The microstructure of cast iron after solidification influences the final properties of the casting From the iron carbon phase diagram above answer the following questions: a) Calculate the volume fraction of ledeburite (eutectic component) present in the alloy containing 3%C after solidification under: i) equilibrium conditions ii) fully...
A common automotive grade ductile iron casting targets the carbon equivalency to 4.54. If the desired carbon content is 3.55 to 3.70% carbon, what is the range of silicon required to produce this type of ductile iron? How much of this alloy is eutectic?
