Normalizing is a heat treatment that improves the toughness of steel. After the steel components are heated to 30-50°C above the Ac3 temperature, they are kept for a period of time and then air cooled. The main feature is that the cooling rate is faster than annealing but lower than quenching. During normalizing, the crystal grains of the steel ASTM A573 carbon steel plate can be refined in a slightly faster cooling. Not only can satisfactory strength be obtained, but also the toughness (AKV value) can be significantly improved and reduced The tendency of the component to crack.
Our company's ASTM A573 carbon steel plate power boilers, heating furnaces of double bars, double high lines and medium and thick plates all adopt heat storage technology, which can fully use blast furnace gas; the ladle baking, Maerz active lime kiln and medium and thick plate heat treatment furnace all burn converter gas, which can improve the ASTM A573 carbon steel plate utilization rate of secondary energy and realize negative energy steelmaking in steelmaking process.
The correct choice of billet type, section shape, size and weight are of great significance to ASTM A573 carbon steel plate steel rolling production. Steel rolling production has certain technical requirements for raw materials, such as steel type, section shape, size, weight, and surface quality. The consideration of these technical requirements is necessary to ensure the quality of steel. It should also be specifically considered when determining and selecting the blank. The ASTM A573 carbon steel plate rolling method can be divided into cold rolling and hot rolling according to the rolling temperature.
Generally speaking, the higher the strength of ASTM A573 carbon steel plate, weathering steel, the greater the hardness, while the plasticity and toughness will decrease. When the carbon content of weathering steel exceeds 1.2%, the hardness will increase, but the strength will not increase, but will decrease. Resilience will also decline quickly. When the carbon content is high, the cementite increases and forms network distribution, which weakens the connection between grains and makes the mechanical properties of steel worse.
Compared with other fast-moving consumer goods, steel consumption is obviously different, with a wide range of use and a long service life. Therefore, the quality and service of steel materials are particularly important. Service is always one of our top concerns, especially after-sales service. We have mature after-sales service team, and can help you solve problems professionally during application of the steel materials.
