APPLICATION OF STEEL ALLOY

1. Carbon steel :
- Composition: The basic ingredients of carbon steel are iron and cacbon.
Depend on the percentage of cacbon, carbon steel is devided into three
subcategories:
o Low carbon steel: 0.03-0.15% carbon.
o Medium carbon steel: 0.25-0.5% carbon.
o High carbon steel: 0.55-1.1% carbon.
- Characteristic: as the percentage of C increases, the alloy becomes harder
and more dificult to bend or weld.
o Low carbon steel: Great ductility, easy to manufacturing and deform.
o Medium carbon steel: Excellent hardness, strength, wear resistance,
ductility and shock resistance.
o High carbon steel: very high strength, extreme hardness and
resistance to wear, moderate ductility.
- Application:
o Low C steel: Auto body panels, bolts, fictures, seamless tubes, steel
plate, … .
o Medium C steel: Automotive Part (Gear, Lead screw,…), Machinery
part, tools (Trowels, shovel, hammer, … ), construction material.
o High C steel: Cutting tool (Drill vet, …), Masonry nails,…
2. Chromium steel:
- Composition:
o Chromium steel: 12-13% chromium.
o Austenilic steel: 18% chromium.
o Heat-resistant steels: 25-30% chromium.
- Characteristic: Chromium hardens the steel and increases the resistance of
steel to corrosion, especially at high temperature.
- Application: Used in automotive part, tools, kitchen utensils.
3. Cobalt steel – High speed steel:
- Composition:
o Cobalt steel is a type of high speed alloy steel which consist of
tungsten, chromim, carbon and cobalt
o Example: M42 cobalt steel consist of 1.1% carbon, 8.25% cobalt, 9.5%
molybdenum, 3.9% chromium, 1.2% vanadium, 1.6% tunsten and 8-
10% cobalt.
- Characteristic: Cobalt is added to increase the hardness and tolerance to
heat. High wear and corrosion resistance, remain strong at high temperature.
- Application: Bandsaw blades, twist drills, saws, end mills, milling cutter, taps,
Knive,… .
4. Mangalloy:
- Composition: Mangalloy contains 0.8-1.25 % C, 11-15% Mn.
- Characteristic: High tensile strength, heat resistance, high impact resistance,
high hardness and ductility. Wear and corrosion resistance.
- Application: Spark plug electrode coating, mining equipments (Pickaxe,
shovel, …), road construction tool( bulldozers, excavators).
5. Molybdenum alloy steel:
- Compostion: Most high-strength steel alloys contain 0.25-8% molybdenum.
- Characteristic: Molybdenum increases the corrosion resistance of steel,
increases the hardenability, toughness and tnsile strength of steel.
- Application: Electrical and electronic devices, aerospace components, high-
temperature furnaces and processing equipments.
6. Nickel steel alloy:
- Composition: these alloys contain 30-35% Nickel, 19-23% Chromium and
minium of 39.5% Iron.
- Characteristic: Nickel increases the corrosion and oxidation resistant at
elevated temperatures. It also improves the toughness and strength by
refining the grain size.
- Application: Aircraft gas turbines, power cable, welding consumables,
automotive spark plugs,…
7. Titanium steel:
- Composition: these alloys contain 6% aluminum, 4% vanadium, 0.25% iron,
0.2% oxygen and the remainder titanum.
- Characteristic: Titanium inceases the strength and resistance to corrosion of
steel. It also light. So it makes the alloys stronger, more durable but is lighter.
- Application: Armored vehicles, armored vests and helmets, bicycles, golf
clubs, …
8. Tungsten steel:
- Composition: Contains tungsten as the primary element. Added other small
amount of elements such as : cobaltm titanium, molybdenum, vanadium and
aluminum.
- Characteristic: Tungsten have high strength, corrosion and wear resistance.
- Application: Micro-drill bits, high-durability self-sharpening rotary cutting
blades, rocket engine nozzles.
9. Vanadium steel:
- Composition: These alloys steel have 0.18% vanadium, 0.5% carbon, 0.7-
0.9% manganese, 0.3% silicon, 0.8-1.1% chromium.
- Characteristic: Vanadium increase the tempering stability of quenched steel
and produces a secondary hardening effect. It increases strength and wear
resistance of alloy.
- Application: Spring steel, automotive components( such as hoods and door
panels), oil and gas pipelines, ….
