The iron obtained from blast furnaces is known as pig iron. It contains around 4% carbon and many impurities such as S, P, Si, Mn in smaller amounts.


Cast iron is obtained by melting pig iron and coke using a hot air blast. It contains a lower amount of carbon (3%) than pig iron. Unlike pig iron, cast iron is extremely hard and brittle.


wrought iron is purest form which has 0.1% impurity

Hey mate!

Here's your answer!!

•Pig iron is the iron obtained from the blast furnace and contains about 4% carbon and many impurities.

•Cast iron is different from pig iron and is made by melting pig iron with scrap iron and coke using hot air blast. It contains slightly lower carbon content and is extremely hard and brittle.

•Wrought iron is the purest form of commercial iron and is prepared from cast iron by oxidizing impurities in the reverberatory furnace lined with Hematite.
