Quenching and Tempering
Cast iron pearlite structure might be heated to lower critical temperature and after that quenched to effect extremely rapid cooling. This treatment reasons the precipitation of hard martensite phase and casting is hence capable of giving high wear resistance. The casting behind quenching treatment might be further heated to 300oC and cooled gradually to restore original toughness.
Surface Hardening
A lot of applications of cast iron demand high surface hardness. This might be attained by surface hardening treatments as like: induction and nitriding hardening.
