Resumen:
A recent work of the authors on the solidification of gray iron has been commented by M. Hillert, who finds that most of the results are in coincidence with works published several decades ago. Some of Hillert?s comments are replied below. The discussion is focused on the differences between what Hillert calls ?classical work in the field? and the more recent bibliography. The authors prove that the role of austenite dendrites on the solidification of eutectic and hypereutectic gray iron has been overlooked over recent years, and that the picture of the solidification mechanism of gray iron was not clear.
