  1. 1. Influence of hydrogen on corrosion and stress induced cracking of stainless steel

    Author : Ulf Kivisäkk; Christofer Leygraf; Roy Johnsen; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hydrogen; corrosion; hydrogen embrittlement; stainless steels; uniform corrosion; activation; dewpoint corrosion; low temperature creep; plastic deformation; microhardness; Surface and colloid chemistry; Yt- och kolloidkemi;

    Abstract : Hydrogen is the smallest element in the periodical table. It has been shown in several studies that hydrogen has a large influence on the corrosion and cracking behaviour of stainless steels. Hydrogen is involved in several of the most common cathode reactions during corrosion and can also cause embrittlement in many stainless steels. READ MORE

  2. 2. Effect of water contamination on the diffused content of hydrogen under stress in AISI-52100 bearing steel

    Author : Tajammal Imran; Maskinelement; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vacuum technology; hydraulics; Mechanical engineering; materialteknik; Materiallära; Material technology; Hydrogen Diffusion; Rolling Element; Machine Elements; Tribology; Hydrogen Embrittlement; vibration and acoustic engineering; Maskinteknik; hydraulik; vakuumteknik; vibrationer; akustik;

    Abstract : Abstract Hydrogen embrittlement is a degradation process of mechanical/tribological properties (toughness, wear etc.) of mating steel surfaces. This is caused by the presence and interaction of hydrogen with applied stresses. Therefore, it is important to quantify the hydrogen content which could be dissolved under applied stresses in steel.

  3. 3. The Effect of Ladle Treatment on Steel Cleanness in Tool Steels

    Author : Karin Steneholm; Pär Jönsson; Guozhu Ye; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; oxygen activity; inclusion characteristics; vacuum degassing; desulphurization; slag; ladle; hydrogen; nitrogen; deslagging; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of the present work was to get an overview of the steel cleanness in tool steel. Plant trial studies of three steel grades were done with different focuses.Firstly the change of the inclusion characteristics during the vacuum degassing in the ladle was looked upon. READ MORE

  4. 4. Influence of the electrolyte on the electrode reactions in the chlorate process

    Author : Linda Nylén; Göran Lindbergh; Ann Cornell; Mårten Behm; Geoeff H Kelsall; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chlorate; chloride oxidation; critical anode potential; chromate; DSA; hydrogen evolution; iron; mass transport; oxygen evolution; REM; RDE; steel; Electrochemistry; Elektrokemi;

    Abstract : The chlorate process is very energy intensive and a major part of the production costs are for electrical energy. Since the electricity prices are constantly increasing and may also vary periodically, the chlorate plants may be forced to adjust their production rate to the price at each moment in order to minimise their costs.

  5. 5. Steel Beyond Coal : Socio-Technical Change and the Emergent Politics of Steel Decarbonisation

    Author : Valentin Vogl; Miljö- och energisystem; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Steel; coal; climate change; decarbonisation; socio-technical transitions; sustainability;

    Abstract : The steel industry is responsible for 8% of all anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions and is the second largest user of coal after the power sector. The main emission source in steel production is the blast furnace, which converts iron ore and metallurgical coal into pig iron that is then further refined into steel. READ MORE
