In this study, we present an in-depth analysis of the microstructure and mechanical properties of cast materials, employing advanced characterization techniques. The research focuses on the utilization of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) for microstructural analysis, alongside nanoindentation and tensile testing for mechanical property evaluation. The materials under investigation include a variety of industrially relevant cast alloys, providing a comprehensive understanding of their behavior under different casting conditions. Our findings reveal a strong correlation between the microstructural features, such as grain size, phase distribution, and defect morphology, and the mechanical properties, including hardness, yield strength, and ductility. The study also highlights the influence of casting parameters on these properties, offering insights for optimizing casting processes. The results of this research not only contribute to the existing body of knowledge on cast materials but also pave the way for the development of advanced materials with tailored properties for specific applications. This work underscores the importance of integrated microstructural and mechanical characterization in understanding and predicting the performance of cast materials, thereby aiding in their effective utilization in various industrial sectors.
