Ratio of ultimate tensile strength and yield stress shows lower values in cold drawn wire than in hot rolled state. The results of research addressing the effect of variations in chemical composition of continuous casted billets on mechanical properties of cold-formed wire used in production of steel mesh are presented. In the c...

This paper examines the impact of charging wet and oxidized material on the quality of cast iron, quality SL20. In consideration were taken the same products obtained from 3 melts. For the production of the first melt wet and oxidized charging components in quantity of 60 % were used, for the second one quantity of 20 % of oxidizied ...

Stainless steel plays an important role in all emerging technologies. Detrimental effects of inclusions in steel do not only depend on their sizes, shape, distribution, but also on their chemical composition and mechanical properties. For this reason, the control of formation of non metallic inclusions and the characterization presen...

The impact of chemical corrosion on the durability of tundish working lining based on slurry mix is discussed in this work. The results of chemical and mineralogical analysis in the sample of tundish working layer after lining lifetime are presented. Infiltration of slag effected in a reduced thermal shock resistance resulting in thermal stress on ...
