摘要:
A solid solution of 28 to 32% MnO, 30 to 35% FeO, 25 to 30% CaO and 8 to 12% MgO is advantageously used as a flux, together with external lime, in the refining of steel. As an adjunct, a solid solution of 80% CaO, 15% MnO and 5% FeO is used as a flux without any or with only a minimum of external lime.

Low-alloy steels having five to eight times the atmospheric corrosion resistance of carbon steels, 80,000 psi minimum yield strengths and an overall desirable balance of mechanical properties produced directly off the hot-mill have the following chemistry: carbon, .04 percent to .10 percent; manganese, .40 percent to 1.80 percent; sulfur, .03 percent maximum; aluminum, .015 percent minimum; chromium, .90 percent to 1.20 percent copper, .30 percent to .50 percent; silicon, .50 percent to 1.20 percent; phophorus, .10 percent to .15 percent; columbium, .015 percent to .040 percent; and zirconium, .04 percent to .12 percent or a total content of rare earth elements, such as cerium and lanthanum, such that the weight ratio of total rare earths to sulfur is at least 2.8 to 1. In processing the steel to strip or plate, it is hot-rolled so as to have a finishing temperature between its A3 temperature and 1,700* F, cooled at a rate between 20* F/sec. and 45* F/sec. and coiled or piled at a temperature of 1,100* F + OR - 100* F.

Tinplate of improved corrosion resistance comprises a steel base with a microstructure between the limits of martensitic-ferritic and fully martensitic provided with a coating of tin and an interfacial tin-iron alloy layer.
摘要:
A low-nitrogen low-carbon high-chromium steel is made by forming a melt of chrome ore, iron ore and lime, reducing the melt with silicon or ferrosilicon out of contact with the ambient air, and teeming the underlying metallic phase also out of contact with the ambient air into a mold.
摘要:
A series of sets of magnetic flux flow paths are sequentially established and passed through a ferromagnetic steel strip being rolled under tension. Each set of paths in the series acts to develop a resultant magnetic flux which is a measure of the average tension in the rolling direction in that portion of the strip through which a particular set of paths passes. The series of sets of paths are established in abutting relation across the width of the strip so that all stresses in the strip across its width are taken into account. A profile across the width of the strip of the magnitude of the applied tension forces in the strip in the rolling direction is thereby obtained, and the profile is used to determine strip flatness.
摘要:
ADHERENT VACUUM VAPOR DEPOSITED ZINC COATINGS ARE PROVIDED FERROUS SUBSTRATES BY INITIALLY VACUUM VAPOR COATING THE SUBSTRATES WITH A FIRST METAL COMPRISING EITHER ALUMINUM OR MAGNESIUM AND THEREAFTER VACUUM VAPOR COATING THE SUBSTRATES WITH ZINC. THE TEMPERATURE OF A SUBSTRATE DURING THE COATING PROCEDURE AND THE ELAPSED TIME BETWEEN APPLICATION OF THE SUCCESSIVE COATINGS ARE CONTROLLED WITHIN CRITICAL LIMITS.
摘要:
Tuyeres and like articles employed to deliver fluids in extremely hot environments include an arrangement for their cooling comprising a conduit in the form of a coil having a plurality of turns for passing a cooling fluid through the article at high velocities. The conduit consists of an outer tubular member closed at one end to fluid flow and an inner tubular member located within the outer tubular member so as to form an annular passageway between the members. The tubular members are in fluid communication adjacent the closed end of the outer member. Cooling fluid introduced into the conduit first passes through the conduit along the annular passageway, enters the inner tubular member adjacent the closed end of the outer member, and passes through the inner tubular member to exit from the conduit.
摘要:
The time required for continuous gas analyzers of blast furnace top gas and the like to reach steady-state conditions after an interruption of furnace operation is greatly reduced by a process including drying the stream of gas analyzed and sealing a gas containing the analyzed constituents within the gas analysis apparatus during the period of interruption.

STEELS HAVING THE FOLLOWING COMPOSITION: .08 TO .18% CARBON; .3 TO 1.0% MANAGANESE; .01 TO .05% COLUMBIUM; .008 TO .014% NITROGEN; .10% MAXIMUM SILICON; LESS THAN A TOTAL OF APPROXIMATELY .02% OF THE NITRIDE-FORMING ELEMENTS ALUMINUM, ZIRCONIUM, VANADIUM AND TITANIUM; AND THE BALANCE ESSENTIALLY IRON, AFTER APPROPRIATE PROCESSING, HAVE YIELD STRENGTHS OF 50,000 TO 70,000 P.S.I. IN HOT-ROLLED AND COLD-ROLLED CONDITIONS AND YIELD STRENGTHS OF 70,000 TO 90,000 P.S.I. AFTER STRAINING AND AGING.
