It is most often alloyed with molybdenum, manganese, iron, and aluminum. By weight, it's one of the strongest readily available metals, making it ideal for wide range of practical applications. It is 45% lighter than steel with comparable strength, and twice as strong as aluminum, while ...
it’s tragically weak. Its atoms are arranged in layers that will slide over one at the slightest of interventions. This makes iron extremely soft and therefore dangerous for, say, construction purposes. Iron is therefore alloyed with carbon to form mild steel. This composite is exceptionally str...
Stainless Steels Sintered Form the Mixture of Prealloyed Stainless Steel and Alloying Element Powders The aim of the presented paper is to describe the sintered duplex stainless steels manufactured in sinter-hardening process and their structural and mechan... Z Brytan,MA Grande,M Rosso,... - 《...
Stainless steel strips are the extension products of ultra-thin stainless steel plates, usually long and narrow stainless steel strips are manufactured to meet the demands of various industrial and mechanical areas. Stainless steel strip is also called stainless steel strip coil. The maximum width of...
Why is rhodium used in jewelry? Almost all white gold jewelry has been rhodium plated. The reason? Because gold in it's natural color is yellow. Think of the color of a gold nugget - it's not white. So to make "white" gold, pure gold is alloyed with white metals, such as nickel...
In the United States, consumer electronics and telecommunications applications account for nearly half of all beryllium consumption. In such applications, beryllium is most often alloyed withcopper(copper-beryllium alloys) and can be found in cable and high-definition televisions, electrical contacts, and...
Ruthenium:Ruthenium is often alloyed with either platinum or palladium, as it gives them greater strength. This metal is valuable in electronics and solar technology applications. Metal Plating Process The metal and plastic plating processes require similar steps. However, some essential differences set...
What is ytterbium used in? Ytterbium has few uses. It can be alloyed with stainless steel to improve some of its mechanical properties and used as a doping agent in fiber optic cable where it can be used as anamplifier. One of ytterbium's isotopes is being considered as a radiation source...
Cobalt based metals are alloyed with chrome, nickel, and tungsten. Due to the high cost of these alloys, they are used where severe conditions prevail and require high temperature strength and hardness, excellent wear, galling, corrosion, and/or erosion resistance. Due to the high chromium conte...
Titanium is a shiny gray metal with a low corrosion rate and high strength. It is a very useful metal for its refractory properties due to its high melting and boiling points. Titanium metal compounds include oxides, sulfides, alkoxides, nitrides, carbides, etc. ...
