ML00098 — Brittle Fracture of a Casting Lifting DeviceM - Low Alloy Medium Carbon QTP - CastingAp - LiftingCd - Brittle Fracture
Micrography of the lifting padeye showing a dendritic path of a quenched and tempered martensitic microstructure. The segregated regions (white interdendritic regions) are more clearly identified in low magnification. Voids are located in these segregated regions.

ML00070 — Automotive Light Alloy Wheel Repaired By WeldingM - Aluminum Silicon MagnesiumP - RimAp - AutomotiveCd - Removed From Service
Micrography of the cast rim, base metal, showing the dendrites of alpha aluminum and interdendritic eutectic Si/alpha, silicon particles in a coalesced condition that suggests a solution annealed treatment. After etching it is possible to identify a transgranular precipitation (aging) and a dark FeSiAl phase (neddles).

Cm - Keller Etched Micrography by OMDf - Base Metal
Low magnification micrography of the welded region, showing the base metal in the bottom, the fusion zone (between the liquidus and solidus temperatures) in the center and the weld metal in the top. There are pores close to the weld metal and in the fusion zone the interdendritic space was melted and the eutectic morphology was changed.
