Question

. What is wrought iron? Discuss in brief its chemical composition, properties and applications.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Wrought iron is an iron alloy with very low carbon content with respect to cast iron.

Explanation:

It is soft, ductile, magnetic, and has high elasticity and tensile strength. It can be heated and reheated and worked into various shapes.

Answer 2

Answer:

Wrought iron is an ferrous metal with a very low amount of carbon (less than 0.08%) compared to cast iron (2% or more). It is a semi-molten mass of iron with a fibrous sheath (up to 2% by weight), giving it a "grain" similar to wood grain, visible when bent or bent to the point of fracture. Wrought iron, malleable, easy to draw, corrosion resistant and easy to weld. Explanation:
