Mild steel has a relatively low tensile strength, but it is cheap and easy to form. Surface hardness can be increased with carburization. [3] The density of mild steel is approximately 7.85 g/cm 3 (7,850 kg/m 3; 0.284 lb/cu in) [4] and the Young's modulus is 200 GPa (29 × 10 ^ 6 psi). [5]
ASTM A992 steel is a structural steel alloy often used in the US for steel wide-flange and I beams. Like other carbon steels, the density of ASTM A992 steel is approximately 7850 kg/m 3 (0.2836 lb/in 3). ASTM A992 steel has the following minimum mechanical properties, according to ASTM specification A992/A992M.
— "Values ranging from 21.3 to 21.5 gm/cm 3 at 20 °C have been reported for the density of annealed platinum; the best value being about 21.45 gm/cm 3 at 20 °C." 21.46 g/cm 3 — Rose, T. Kirke. The Precious Metals, Comprising Gold, Silver and Platinum .
The kilogram per cubic metre (symbol: kg·m −3, or kg/m 3) is the unit of density in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined by dividing the SI unit of mass, the kilogram, by the SI unit of volume, the cubic metre. [1]
The density of steel varies based on the alloying constituents but usually ranges between 7,750 and 8,050 kg/m 3 (484 and 503 lb/cu ft), or 7.75 and 8.05 g/cm 3 (4.48 and 4.65 oz/cu in). [ 8 ] Even in a narrow range of concentrations of mixtures of carbon and iron that make steel, several different metallurgical structures, with very different ...
A common type of micro-alloyed steel is improved-formability HSLA. It has a yield strength up to 80,000 psi (550 MPa) but costs only 24% more than A36 steel (36,000 psi (250 MPa)). One of the disadvantages of this steel is that it is 30 to 40% less ductile.
Amorphous steel is limited to foils of about 50 μm thickness. The mechanical properties of amorphous steel make stamping laminations for electric motors difficult. Since amorphous ribbon can be cast to any specific width under roughly 13 inches and can be sheared with relative ease, it is a suitable material for wound electrical transformer cores.
Generally, Ti-6Al-4V is used in applications up to 400 degrees Celsius. It has a density of roughly 4420 kg/m 3, Young's modulus of 120 GPa, and tensile strength of 1000 MPa. [22] By comparison, annealed type 316 stainless steel has a density of 8000 kg/m 3, modulus of 193 GPa, and tensile strength of 570 MPa. [23]
