Low-alloy steel is a type of steel with added hard materials such as nickel and chromium, making it hard and tough but difficult to weld. It is commonly used for large pipes in the oil industry and can be used for construction and military purposes. The characteristics of the steel can be changed depending on […]
Titanium alloy is a strong, lightweight material made of titanium mixed with other metals. It has many applications, including aerospace engineering, medical implants, and sports equipment. The most common blend is 90% titanium, 6% aluminum, and 4% vanadium. Titanium is extracted from ores and is relatively expensive. The alloy is used in military hardware and […]
Steel is primarily made of iron and small amounts of carbon, with additional elements added to create desired properties. Alloy steels are divided into high-alloy and low-alloy, with the former having more than 8% of other elements. Low-alloy steels are modified for greater hardness, durability, corrosion resistance, or toughness. Stainless steel is a well-known alloy […]
Alloy pipes are made from specific blends of metals, with different alloys suited to different applications. Wholesalers organize inventory by alloy type and tube diameter, with steel, aluminum, copper, and brass commonly used. Steel is ideal for applications requiring hardness, strength, and wear resistance, while stainless steel has distinctive properties due to its chromium content. […]
Mechanical alloying is a powder metalworking technique that crushes base materials into a fine powder form in a ball mill, followed by cold welding. This process creates designer superalloyed metals with desirable physical properties used in spacecraft and satellite equipment. Cold welding involves placing pre-alloy component powders together under extreme pressure of a vacuum and […]
Mechanical alloying is a powder metalworking technique that involves crushing base materials into a fine powder form in a ball mill, followed by cold welding under vacuum pressure. This process creates designer superalloyed metals with desirable physical properties, used in spacecraft and satellite equipment. The use of hot isostatic pressure aids in the creation of […]
