Cold cracking issues were identified in 430Cb ferritic stainless steel castings, indicating significant production challenges.
Field emission scanning electron microscopy revealed brittle intergranular characteristics in the fracture surfaces.
Investment casting led to concentrated stress and microstructure defects that reduced material plasticity.
Findings highlight the need for improved techniques during the investment casting process to mitigate cold cracking.
