For Iron:
Each iron grade has a specific curve:

Why using
Thermal
Analysis?:
Thermal Analysis
can check the
iron quality
during
elaboration:
Especially after a
long maintain in
the furnace
Present Possibility:
Thermal Analysis with using the first and second derivations
Present Possibility:
Thermal Analysis with 3 cups: presently for gray iron
This gray value is the right estimation of what we will probably obtain
in the casting regarding the white and the graphitic iron
