Gray cast iron age strengthening is a phenomenon known as a modification of the alloy’s structure by iron-nitride precipitation during few days after casting. It generates an evolution of cast iron mechanical properties as a gain of hardness and Young’s modulus. In a first time, this article presents the possibility to monitor the aging time and the intensity of age strengthening using two nondestructive...
