Abstract The iron and steel industry accounts for 5 % of worldwide CO2 emissions. With 13 MtCO2eq annually, TATA Steel, which employs the traditional blast furnace – basic oxygen furnace steel making route, is one of the largest single point emitters in the Netherlands (and EU). Given the role of steel in present and future society, decarbonizing the steel industry is of paramount importance for a CO2 net-zero society.

  • Ferrous Friction Stir Weld Physical Simulation A
    FERROUS FRICTION STIR WELD PHYSICAL SIMULATION A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Seth Jason Norton, M.S. ******** The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. John Lippold, Adviser Dr. David Dickinson Adviser Dr. Charles Albright Welding Engineering Graduate Program ii ABSTRACT Traditional fusion welding processes have several drawbacks associated with the melting and solidification of metal. Weld defects associated with the solidification of molten metal may act as initiation sites for cracks. Segregation of alloying elements during solidification may cause local changes in resistance to corrosion. The high amount of heat required to produce the molten metal in the weld can produce distortion from the intended position on cooling. The heat from the electric arc commonly used to melt metal in fusion welds may also produce metal fumes which are a potential health hazard. Friction stir welding is one application which has the potential to make full thickness welds in a single pass, while eliminating fume, reducing distortion, and eliminating solidification defects. Currently the friction stir welding process is used in the aerospace industry on aluminum alloys. Interest in the process by industries which rely on iron and its alloys for structural material is increasing. While friction stir welding has been shown to be feasible with iron alloys, the understanding of friction stir welding process effects on these materials is in its infancy. This project was aimed to better that understanding by developing a procedure for physical simulation of friction stir welding.

  • Aluminium Alloys Chemical Composition Pdf
    Aluminium alloys chemical composition pdf Continue Alloy in which aluminum is the predominant lye frame of aluminum welded aluminium alloy, manufactured in 1990. Aluminum alloys (or aluminium alloys; see spelling differences) are alloys in which aluminium (Al) is the predominant metal. Typical alloy elements are copper, magnesium, manganese, silicon, tin and zinc. There are two main classifications, namely casting alloys and forged alloys, both further subdivided into heat-treatable and heat-free categories. Approximately 85% of aluminium is used for forged products, e.g. laminated plates, foils and extrusions. Aluminum cast alloys produce cost-effective products due to their low melting point, although they generally have lower tensile strength than forged alloys. The most important cast aluminium alloy system is Al–Si, where high silicon levels (4.0–13%) contributes to giving good casting features. Aluminum alloys are widely used in engineering structures and components where a low weight or corrosion resistance is required. [1] Alloys composed mostly of aluminium have been very important in aerospace production since the introduction of metal leather aircraft. Aluminum-magnesium alloys are both lighter than other aluminium alloys and much less flammable than other alloys containing a very high percentage of magnesium. [2] Aluminum alloy surfaces will develop a white layer, protective of aluminum oxide, if not protected by proper anodization and/or dyeing procedures. In a wet environment, galvanic corrosion can occur when an aluminum alloy is placed in electrical contact with other metals with a more positive corrosion potential than aluminum, and an electrolyte is present that allows the exchange of ions.

The sector has thereby achieved significant reductions in energy intensity over the last decades . However, the steel industry understood early that breakthrough technologies would be needed to achieve additional and drastic reductions. The development of breakthrough technologies requires a considerable amount of time before possible commercial deployment . The identification of promising technologies and their development began in the early 2000s but slowed down significantly after the economic crisis .

  • Investigation on Boronizing of N80 Tube Steel

SUN2) 1) Key Laboratory of Automobile Materials, Ministry of Education, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Nanling Campus of Jilin University, Changchun 130025, Peoples’ Republic of China. E-mail: [email protected] 2) Songyuan Daduo Oilfield Accessory Industry Co. Ltd., Songyuan, 138000, Peoples’ Republic of China. (Received on May 26, 2009; accepted on July 21, 2009) In present paper, boronizing was applied to N80 steel tube by pack boronizing, and its effect on mechani- cal properties, wear and corrosion of N80 tube steel was investigated. A dual-phase boride layer composed of FeB and F2B phases was formed on the surface of the steel substrate in a hardness range of 1 220–1 340 HV. A set-up was designed to reduce usage of the boriding agent and accelerate the pipe’s cooling process after boronizing treatment. In order to meet the tensile properties of N80 steel required by API SPEC 5L, different cooling methods were employed including annealing, normalizing, fan-cooling and graphite-bar assisted rapid cooling. Among these methods, graphite-bar assisted rapid cooling resulted in the highest amount of pearlite in the steel substrate and the highest mechanical properties, satisfying the mechanical properties of API SPEC 5L. The boronized N80 steel exhibited an abrasive wear mechanism and showed a higher wear resistance under a given sliding condition due to the great hardness and integrity of the boride layer, and it also displayed an excellent corrosion resistance in both H2SO4 and HCl acid environ- ments.
