- Diamond Indenter
- Process: minor load applied, major load applied, major load removed
- Minor Loads - Superficial: 3 kg , Regular: 10 kg
- Major Loads - Superficial: 15, 30, 45 kg , Regular: 60, 100, 150
- Superficial is used for thin materials
-
- Knoop/Vickers: Diamond indenter, 1-2000g load, microhardness of soft steels to ceramics
- Brinell: Ball indenter, 500 and 3000 kg, soft steels
- Rockwell (Bc)(Tc)(Rc): ball indenter, 100 kg - superficial major loads - for soft
- Rockwell (Nc)(Ad)(Cc): Diamond indenter - for hard
- HARD to SOFT: Knoop/Rockwell C, Brinell, Rockwell B, Shore

- STRESS = force/area (psi)
- STRAIN = change in length/length (in/in)
- found by tensile test
-

- Caption: more ductile = longer x axis, a stretched graph
-
- When yield point cannot be found:
- set at .2% elastic strain
- using young's modulus of elasticity (slope) find point of the curve if the slope is used where x=.2%

-
- stress/strain = E (psi) - SLOPE of graph, at the beginning
- important in choosing materials
- Steel = 30x10^6 psi
- Aluminum = 10x10^6
-
- gage length for tensile testing = very great in comparison to diameter
-
- used to determine material behavior at higher deformation speeds
- the higher the impact strength, the greater the fracture resistance will be
- pivoting arm drops, breaks specimen
- notch samples can be used to test notch sensitivity
- Nil-Ductility Transition: the temperature above which a material is ductile and below which it is brittle

-
- tested by repeating fluctuating loads
- the number of cycles required to cause failure in a specimen against the amplitude of the cyclical stress developed
-
- prolonged tensile or compressive load at a constant temperature. The rate of deformation of a sample material to stress at a constant temperature is known as the creep rate. It is the slope created by the creep vs. time.

-
- outputs pig iron, high in carbon (3.5%)
- slag used in concrete

-
- the production of iron historically required three important raw materials: iron ore, coke and limestone
- reduces impurities
- produces slag
- coke = converted coal
-
- Happens in a blast furnace
- Removes carbon with help of oxygen
- iron (III) oxide+carbon monoxide =iron+carbon dioxideFe2O3(s)+3 CO(g) =2 Fe(l)+3 CO2(g)
-
- Wrought iron and refined iron are products of pig iron refining
- Refining: purifying an impure metal
- Primary steelmaking: uses mostly new iron from a blast furnace
- Secondary steelmaking: uses scrap steel as raw material in electric arc furnace.
-
- Blast Furnace - iron ore, limestone and coke, hot air goes in. product: PIG IRON.
- Basic Oxygen Furnace (BOF) - uses scrap metal to make new steel by pushing in oxygen, nitrogen and argon (oxygen lance) oxygen forms CO and CO2, removes carbon, sulfur and phosphorus - 40% used in america. Capacity: 150-300 tonnes per "heat" every 30 minutes. pours out.
- Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) - uses old steel, sends electricity through to raise temperature. 35 minutes per heat. 1-400 tonnes. SECONDARY steelmaking. graphite electrodes, oxygen, lime create electric arcs. Can be shut down between uses.
-
- from furnace, liquid steel is in ladle, goes through tundish feeding to caster mold, straightens out and is cut. water cooled. produces 3000 heats between shutdowns.
