This data analysis was undertaken to investigate the weatherability of steels whose compositions do not fall in the range of ASTM Standard G101, Estimating the Atmospheric Corrosion Resistance of Low-Alloy Steels (1). This standard was developed to estimate the corrosion resistance of low-alloy weathering steels from chemical composition data and from actual atmospheric exposure tests. This sta...

In this study, the hardness and wear behaviour of carburized and boronized AISI 8620 steels have been studied. The boronizing treatment increased the hardness of AISI 8620 steels from 395 HV0.1 to a maximal 1610 HV0.1 compared to the carburized steels and also significantly improved its wear behaviour. From obtained results, it can be concluded that boronizing is very effective surface hardenin...

The 0.2C-2Si (mass%) steels with the addition of 0–4 mass% Cr were prepared by hot rolling followed subsequent annealing for normalization. subjected to friction stir welding (FSW) conducted above A3 temperature. For all steels, sound FSWed joints obtained. Microstructures and tensile properties using small specimens investigated both base materials zones. showed a relatively good balance stren...

Carbon steels are widely used in the oil and gas industry from downhole tubing to transport trunk lines. Microbes form biofilms, some of which cause the so-called microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) of carbon steels. MIC by sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) is often a leading cause in MIC failures. Electrogenic SRB sessile cells harvest extracellular electrons from elemental iron oxidati...

Static recrystallization is a method of tailoring the microstructure and mechanical properties steels, which important for microalloyed forging steels as hot deformation process significantly affects their properties. In this paper, static behavior low-carbon Nb-V-microalloyed steel was investigated by double-pass compression tests at temperature 800–1100 °C interruption time 1–1000 s. The frac...

Hot-work tool steels are used in casting and hot-forming processes subjected to thermal, mechanical chemical stresses that can cause damage various parts of the tool. Therefore, knowledge interaction between steel molten aluminium alloy is necessary extend life The present work was carried out predict influence temperature on kinetics aluminium. To investigate effect dissolution rate formation ...

Abstract Hot forming processes of complex parts with small cavities demand high-performance tools made hardened steels. Their surface can be tribologically modified in order to control the material flow for improving mold filling functional elements. Surface structuring here offers great potential adjusting frictional properties and thus controlling processes. In this study, high-feed milling (...

the unique properties of air-cooled bainitic steels have been described. a series of mn containing air-cooled bainitic steels invented by authors is presented in this paper: including low carbon granular bainitic steels, low carbon grain-boundary allotriomorphic ferrite/granular bainite duplex steels, medium and medium high carbon bainite/martensite duplex steel, and low carbon carbide free bai...

Nanostructured bainite is a novel ultra-high-strength steel-concept under intensive current research, in which the optimization of its mechanical properties can only come from a clear understanding of the parameters that control its ductility. This work reviews first the nature of this composite-like material as a product of heat treatment conditions. Subsequently, the premises of ductility beh...
