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 ...
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 ...
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.
Segregation
Materials science; Metallurgy
Segregation in materials refers to the enrichment of a material constituent at a free surface or an internal interface of a material. In a polycrystalline solid, a segregation ...
Twinning
Materials science; Metallurgy
A process in which two or more crystals, or parts of crystals, assume orientations such that one may be brought to coincidence with the other by reflection across a plane or by ...
Necking
Materials science; Metallurgy
The reduction in diameter that occurs as a sample material is subjected to tensile stresses. Necking, in engineering or materials science, is a mode of tensile deformation where ...
Clevage
Materials science; Metallurgy
Cleavage, in structural geology and petrology, describes a type of planar rock feature that develops as a result of deformation and metamorphism.The degree of deformation and ...
