The austenitic nodular cast iron, used for the experiments, was alloyed by 13% nickel and 7% manganese (EN-GJSA-XNiMn13-7) to obtain an austenitic matrix. The microstructure was studied using light metallographic microscopy. Mechanical properties were investigated by tensile test, impact bending test and Brinell hardness test. Fatigue tests were carried out at sinusoidal cyclic push-pull loading at ambient temperature. The results of fatigue tests were compared with the fatigue properties of ferrite-pearlitic nodular cast iron and pearlite-ferritic nodular cast iron. Experimental results show that NiMn-type of austenitic nodular cast iron has lower tensile strength and hardness, but higher elongation and absorbed energy than the compared types of nodular cast iron. However, austenitic nodular cast iron has lower fatigue limit.}, type={Article}, title={Fatigue Resistance and Other Utility Properties of NiMn-Type of Austenitic Nodular Cast Iron}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/127392/PDF/AMM-2023-2-19-Vasko.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2023.142435}, keywords={Ni-Resist, austenitic nodular cast iron, EN-GJSA-XNiMn13-7, fatigue, push-pull loading}, }
