Functions of Microalloy Elements Nb, V and Ti in Steel

Hot rolling is rolling above the recrystallization temperature, contrary to cold rolling which is rolling below the recrystallization temperature. To put it simply, hot rolling is a process in which the steel billet is subjected to several rounds of rolling after ...

The Role Manganese Plays in Stainless Steel

Manganese, the chemical symbol known as Mn and the atomic number as 25, is a grayish-white, hard-brittle and shiny transition metal. Pure manganese is slightly softer than iron while impure manganese containing a small amount of impurities is ...

The Role Molybdenum Plays in Stainless Steel

Molybdenum is a kind of transition element, and its oxidation state is easy to change. It plays the role of electron transfer in oxidation reduction-reactions. In the form of oxidation, molybdenum is likely to be in the +6-Valence state, although it can revert ...

The Role Chromium Plays in Stainless Steel

There are roughly five surface processing techniques applicable to stainless steel, i.e., rolling surface processing, mechanical surface processing, chemical surface processing, anilox surface processing and color surface processing to be ...

The Role Nickel Plays in Stainless Steel

Nickel is a silver-white, hard, ductile and ferromagnetic metal element that is corrosion resistant and capable of being highly polished. Nickel is a pro-iron element. The core is most rich in nickel, the natural nickel-iron alloy. In the earth's crust, Ferro- ...
