Semi-steel
鋼性鋳鉄 means "semi-steel"
or if you doubt the kanji themselves it could even simply be 鋼製 "steel."

so with reference to polymers it could be 'semi-plastics,' or 'semi-polymers.'

rigidity
剛性 = rigidity
剛性計 = rigidometer
剛性率 = shear modulus
The best approach is rigidity, though stiffness is also frequently used

Discussion
This is part of the sentence. It should clarify things
