The problem: A new type of steel is known as Twining Induced Plasticity Steel, more commonly known as TWIP Steel. There is a general interest in using this type of steel in the automotive industry due to its unique material properties such as super toughness and super ductility, although its chemical properties also play a vital role. It has a high content of Mn (more than 25%) and about 3% Si ...

BACKGROUND, AIM AND SCOPE Water quality impairment by heavy metal contamination is on the rise worldwide. Phytoremediation technology has been increasingly applied to remediate wastewater and stormwater polluted by heavy metals. MATERIALS AND METHODS Laboratory analysis and field trials were conducted to evaluate the uptake of metals (Al, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni, Pb, and Zn)...

The synergetic utilization of ferruginous gibbsite ores (Al-Fe ores) and manganese (Mn-Fe by the carbothermic co-reduction roasting–magnetic separation process was proposed as an innovative green for recovery valuable metal elements Mn, Fe Al from these ores. In this paper, a ferromanganese crude alloy with 72.47% 10.19% Mn high 85.89% prepared, which produces acceptable feed to produce steels ...

Due to the rising need for energy saving, high-performing automotive heat exchangers, demand has significantly grown in recent years. As a result, effective fin-tube exchangers are becoming more popular. These tubes typically made by rolling flat strips of AA3003 aluminum alloys that have either one or both sides coated with AA4xxx alloys. The type alloy is used as core, which then covered AA40...

In this study we present an initial dataset of Mn/Ca and Fe/Ca ratios in tests of benthic foraminifera from the Peruvian oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) determined with SIMS. These results are a contribution to a better understanding of the proxy potential of these elemental ratios for ambient redox conditions. Foraminiferal tests are often contaminated by diagenetic coatings, like Mn rich carbonateo...
