Meehanite CC Corrosion Resisting Cast Iron Product Information -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -: # **Meehanite CC Series: Corrosion Resistant Cast Iron** ## **Product Overview** Meehanite CC represents a family of premium corrosion-resistant cast irons engineered to withstand aggressive chemical environments, saline conditions, and acidic/alkaline media. The "CC" designation specifically denotes **Corrosion Control** capabilities, distinguishing these alloys from standard cast irons through carefully balanced alloying elements that form protective passive layers and stable microstructures in corrosive environments. These materials bridge the gap between standard cast iron and high-alloy stainless steels, offering superior corrosion resistance at a more economical cost point for numerous industrial applications. --- ## **1. Chemical Composition** Meehanite CC grades encompass two primary alloy families with distinct chemical profiles tailored for different corrosive environments: ### **High-Silicon Corrosion Resistant Iron (CC-Si Series)** - **Silicon (Si):** 14.5–16.5% (Forms highly protective SiO₂ surface layer) - **Carbon (C):** 0.6–1.0% (Lowered to improve corrosion resistance) - **Manganese (Mn):** 0.3–0.8% - **Chromium (Cr):** 0.3–1.5% (Enhances passivation in oxidizing acids) - **Sulfur (S):** <0.05% - **Phosphorus (P):** <0.15% ### **Nickel-Chromium Austenitic Iron (CC-NiCr Series)** - **Nickel (Ni):** 13.5–36% (Provides austenitic structure, improves overall corrosion resistance) - **Chromium (Cr):** 1.5–5.5% (Essential for passivation in oxidizing environments) - **Copper (Cu):** 5.5–7.5% (Often added for sulfuric acid resistance) - **Carbon (C):** 2.5–3.2% - **Silicon (Si):** 1.0–2.5% - **Molybdenum (Mo):** 0–3.0% (Added for chloride/pitting resistance) **Microstructural Features:** - **CC-Si Grades:** Primary ferritic matrix with fine graphite dispersion and silicon-rich intermetallic phases - **CC-NiCr Grades:** Stable austenitic matrix (flake or spheroidal graphite) providing both corrosion resistance and dimensional stability --- ## **2.
