This waste can be sent to re-smelting, however, if it contains a high content of impurity components, it is sent to the dump as waste. This waste contains 40 – 50 % of iron compounds, with a developed surface. In the framework of the work, it is proposed to use slag as a feedstock to obtain complex coagulants. Complex coagulants are highly effective reagents used in wastewater treatment processes for hydrotreating parts, gas purification, and also galvanic wastewater. As part of the studies, the high efficiency of complex coagulants in the processes of wastewater treatment of galvanic production from chromium (VI) ions was confirmed.","PeriodicalId":21337,"journal":{"name":"Revue De Metallurgie-cahiers D Informations Techniques","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72652275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the present work, the specific relationship between cracking zone area, centre solid fraction and maximum equivalent strain in cracking zone has been established under a number of withdrawal machines. A two-stage sequential soft reduction method was carried out for high carbon bearing steel, which aims to provide theoretical basis for improving the internal quality and effectively decrease the risk of internal cracks. According to the experimental results, the internal cracks were effectively alleviated and center shrinkage cavities were nearly eliminated by optimum designed experiments. Along the bloom central part, the proportion of length where the segregation rate is between 0.95 and 1 has been increased from 16.7% to 91%, and the fluctuation of carbon distribution in the center line of as-cast bloom was decreased to obtain the high homogeneity of the internal structure. In addition, grade of banded carbide in the hot-rolled wire decreased accordingly from 2.5 to 1.67.","PeriodicalId":21337,"journal":{"name":"Revue De Metallurgie-cahiers D Informations Techniques","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84977460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The water and silicon oil were employed to simulate the liquid steel and slag. The effect of the turbulence inhibitor on the slag entrainment and the steel exposure during ladle change were evaluated and discussed. The effect of the slag carry-over on the water-oil-air flow was also analyzed. For the original tundish, the top oil phase in the impact zone was continuously dragged into the tundish bath and opened during ladle change, forming an emulsification phenomenon. By decreasing the liquid velocities in the upper part of the impact zone, the turbulence inhibitor decreased considerably the amount of entrained slag and the steel exposure during ladle change, thereby eliminating the emulsification phenomenon. Furthermore, the use of the TI-2 effectively lowered the effect of the slag carry-over on the steel cleanliness by controlling the movement of slag droplets. The results from industrial trials indicated that the application of the TI-2 reduced considerably the number of linear inclusions caused by ladle change in hot-rolled strip coils.","PeriodicalId":21337,"journal":{"name":"Revue De Metallurgie-cahiers D Informations Techniques","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85617891","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to SEM data, the particle size was 1 μm with a substructure. The heat treatment of Nd-Fe-B alloys with Cu additives leads to crystallization of the amorphous phase and an increase in coercive force and residual magnetization. The maximum hysteresis properties were achieved for the sample with the addition of 0.4% Cu: Hc = 376 kA / m and σr = 65 A·m2/kg.

Moreover, yield strength of the rolled and stress aged sample at 120 °C under an external stress of 50 MPa and only for 1 h was improved to 240 MPa. Microstructural observations demonstrate that the grain growth firstly reduced the strength of rolled condition while improving the strain at failure. This was followed by the nucleation of recrystallized grains, enhancing the UTS with acceptable ductility. In addition, fracture surface analysis of stress aged samples demonstrated nucleation-controlled fracture mechanisms with deeper void structures as a ductile characteristic.","PeriodicalId":21337,"journal":{"name":"Revue De Metallurgie-cahiers D Informations Techniques","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80954776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Magnetron sputtering enables to design nanostructured and textured β-Ti rich Ti22Nb-10Zr (wt.%) coatings with variable mechanical properties (hardness and Young’s modulus). Depending on the magnitude of the bias voltage used during deposition of the coating, martensitic transformation from the unstable β (bcc) to α” (orthorhombic) phase is activated. This transformation induces compressive residual stresses modifying the tensile strength, hardness and Young's modulus. The residual stresses were measured by nanoindentation, the microstructure and phase evolution were characterized by X-ray diffraction. The spatial phase distribution was determined by transmission electron microscopy. The calculated real hardness increases from 2.1 to 4.1 GPa as the bias voltage is increased from 0 to -148 V.

The contribution discusses the possibilities of calculating the thermodynamic quantities of blast furnace gas as a mixture of gases. The state equation of an ideal gas does not apply accurately enough over a wide range of temperatures and pressures. The inaccuracy of the ideal gas state equation generally increases with decreasing temperature and increasing pressure. To verify the dependence of gas thermodynamic quantities on pressure and to calculate state quantities under normal conditions, I present the so-called Benedict-Webb-Rubin equation, which can be easily derivable, so that from the pressure formula it is possible very easily to obtain formulas for other thermodynamic variables, is sufficiently precise and the values of constants are set for a large number of gases.","PeriodicalId":21337,"journal":{"name":"Revue De Metallurgie-cahiers D Informations Techniques","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81403755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
