Bronizing

Materials science; Metallurgy

Bronizing is one of the recent methods of surface hardening,which may be applied to any ferrous material but is generally adopted for carbon steel and tool steel.

Chromizing

Materials science; Metallurgy

Chromizing is also used for surface hardening of both carbon and tool steels.The components to be chromized are packed with fine chromium powder and additives.

Wrought steels are shaped by plastic deformation(mechanical working).View examples of the ornamental wrought iron railings, fences, gates, spiral staircases .This name of steel is given on the base ...

Cast Steels

Materials science; Metallurgy

Steels shaped by casting method are known as cast steels.Mechanical properties of cast product are inferior as compared to wrought product of same steel.Two important factors,i.e.production of ...

Silicon Steels

Materials science; Metallurgy

Silicon steels contains approximate 0.05 percent carbon and 0.10 percent manganese and 0.50 to 1 percent silicon and less than 0.02 percent sulphur and phosphorus.Silicon steels usually have better ...

Manganese Steels

Materials science; Metallurgy

Manganese in the range of 1.65 to 2 percent is added to improve tensile strength,hardness,harden ability and hot workability of steel.Manganese steel with high carbon 1.1 to 1.4 percent and high ...

Corrosion

Materials science; Metallurgy

The chemical or electrochemical reaction between a material, usually a metal, and its environment that produces a deterioration of the material and its properties.
