EFFECT OF DEFORMATION AND HEAT TREATMENT ON MICROSTRUCTURE OF WARM ROLLED STEEL IN ALPHA-GAMMA AREA
In this paper the effect of different heat treatment (recrystallization, spheroidizing and normalizing) processes on microstructure of the steel DC04 intended for deep drawing is presented. The steel is cladded with CuZn10 layers by explosive welding. Since the melting temperature of alloy CuZn10 is significantly lower (melting range 1025-1045 oC) ...

THE MICROSTRUCTURE OF THE SCALE FORMED DURING THE HIGH TEMPERATURE OXIDATION OF A FeCrAl ALLOYS
FeCrAl alloys have good oxidation resistance at elevated temperature owing to the formation of a continuous Al2O3 surface film, which acts as an oxygen diffusion barrier. The aim of the present study was to investigate the early stages of protective oxide layer formation and its growth on specially prepared commercial FeCrAl alloys, Kanthal AF (K-A...

PROGNOSIS OF REACTIVITY AND STRENGTH OF COKE BASED ON MODIFIED BASICITY INDEX MODEL
Metallurgical coke, as a fuel and a reducing agent, also allows for the gas to go through a charge in the blast furnace. The coke must have a strength, porosity, reactivity and a uniform granulation, because reaction of CO2 at high temperatures in the furnace. There are various mathematical models for the optimization of coal blend, which allow the...

CAVITATION OF REFRACTORY SAMPLES BASED ON TALC AND ZEOLITE FROM ZLATOKOP, SERBIA
Samples based on talc with 15 % of zeolite from Zlatokop, Serbia, sintered at 1200 ºC were prepared and tested in condition of cavitation erosion. The ultrasonic vibratory cavitation set up with stationary specimen was used. Mass loss was measured and degradation level of the samples using image analysis and Young modulus of elasticity was mon...

THE EFFECTS OF THE DISTRIBUTION COEFFICIENT ON THE PROPERTIES OF THE REFRACTORY CASTABLES FROM THE CHAMOTTE WASTE AND CLAY “RAPAJLO”
The paper examined the conventional castables composed of a mixture of high aluminate cement with 70% Al2O3, chamotte waste with 42% Al2O3 and brick clay ,,Rapajlo“. The influence of particle size distribution on density, porosity, water absorption, modulus of rapture and cold crashing strength was investigated. Particle size distribution was...

THE EFFECTS OF NANOSILICA ON THE PHYSICAL-MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE
The physical-mechanical properties of concrete with nanosilica were experimentally studied. Nanosilica in powder form was used as a partial replacement of cement at dosage of 3 and 6 wt.%. The experimental results show that the compressive strengths of concretes with nanosilica particles were all higher than those of reference concretes at ages 1, ...

LCA METHOD AS AN USEFUL TOOL IN PRODUCTION ENGENEERING
The most used and established method for detecting the effects of the product on the environment is a life cycle assessment (LCA) method. LCA analyzes the effects of the product on the environment in its all five life stages: design, materials selection, manufacture, use, and ultimately its removal. At the same time LCA is an important tool wh...
