The equivalent carbon content concept is used on ferrous materials, typically steel and cast iron, to determine various properties of the alloy when more than just carbon is used as an alloyant, which is typical. The idea is to convert the percentage of alloying elements other than carbon to the equivalent carbon percentage, because the iron ...
The term immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH) is defined by the US National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) as exposure to airborne contaminants that is "likely to cause death or immediate or delayed permanent adverse health effects or prevent escape from such an environment." Examples include smoke or other ...
Chromium and nickel-free welding is an innovative approach to reducing the health risks associated with traditional welding processes. By eliminating hazardous substances such as chromium and nickel from welding materials, this technology provides a safer environment for welders and nearby workers while maintaining high performance in various ...
Hydrogen is used for welding of nickel and some stainless steels, especially thicker pieces. It improves the molten metal fluidity, and enhances cleanness of the surface. It is added to argon in amounts typically under 10%. It can be added to argon-carbon dioxide blends to counteract the oxidizing effects of carbon dioxide.
Underwater welding Underwater welding habitat for dry hyperbaric welding. Hyperbaric welding is the process of extreme welding at elevated pressures, normally underwater. [1] [2] Hyperbaric welding can either take place wet in the water itself or dry inside a specially constructed positive pressure enclosure and hence a dry environment.
The scale uses the global warming potential unit, the carbon dioxide equivalent (CO 2 e), and the unit of electrical energy, the kilowatt hour (kWh). The goal of such assessments is to cover the full life of the source, from material and fuel mining through construction to operation and waste management.
Zone II includes most carbon steels with a carbon content above 0.10%. Steels in this zone can be prone to cold cracks. In this case, it is preferable to use low hydrogen filler and slow the cooling rate during welding process. Zone III includes alloy steels with a carbon content above 0.10% and a high carbon equivalent index. Materials in this ...
A review of works on fullerene toxicity by Lalwani et al. found little evidence that C 60 is toxic. [1] The toxicity of these carbon nanoparticles varies with dose, duration, type (e.g., C 60, C 70, M@C 60, M@C 82), functional groups used to water-solubilize these nanoparticles (e.g., OH, COOH), and method of administration (e.g., intravenous, intraperitoneal).
