Steel grades to classify various steels by their composition and physical properties have been developed by a number of standards organizations. Steel grades standards by country [ edit ]
The SAE steel grades system is a standard alloy numbering system (SAE J1086 – Numbering Metals and Alloys) for steel grades maintained by SAE International. In the 1930s and 1940s, the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) and SAE were both involved in efforts to standardize such a numbering system for steels. These efforts were similar ...
The Unified Numbering System for Metals and Alloys (UNS) is an alloy designation system widely accepted in North America.Each UNS number relates to a specific metal or alloy and defines its specific chemical composition, or in some cases a specific mechanical or physical property.
MLWN – mean low water neaps; MLWS – mean low water springs; mm – millimetre (SI unit) MM – prefix designating a number in millions (thousand-thousand) MMbod – million barrels of oil per day; MMboe – million barrels of oil equivalent; MMboed – million barrels of oil equivalent per day; MMbpd – million barrels per day
Metal prices are the prices of metal as a commodity that are traded in bulk at a predefined purity or grade. Metal can be split into three major categories, precious metals, industrial metals and other metals.
Steel never turns into a liquid below this temperature. Pure Iron ('Steel' with 0% Carbon) starts to melt at 1,492 °C (2,718 °F), and is completely liquid upon reaching 1,539 °C (2,802 °F). Steel with 2.1% Carbon by weight begins melting at 1,130 °C (2,070 °F), and is completely molten upon reaching 1,315 °C (2,399 °F).
The main differences in composition, when compared with austenitic stainless steel is that duplex steels have a higher chromium content, 20–28%; higher molybdenum, up to 5%; lower nickel, up to 9% and 0.05–0.50% nitrogen. Both the low nickel content and the high strength (enabling thinner sections to be used) give significant cost benefits.
