The main applications of normalizing are as follows:① For low carbon steel, ASTM A572 CS steel carbon plate. The hardness of low carbon steel after normalizing is slightly higher than that after annealing, and the toughness is also better, so normalizing can be used as the pretreatment of cutting.② For medium carbon steel, normalizing can be used as the final heat treatment instead of quenching and tempering treatment, or as the preparation treatment before surface quenching by induction heating.③ Normalizing can be used in tool steel, bearing steel, carburizing steel and so on, which can eliminate or inhibit the formation of network carbide, thus obtaining the good microstructure needed for spheroidizing annealing.④ Normalizing can refine the cast structure and improve the machinability of steel castings.
Turkey produced 8.97 million metric tons of crude steel in the first quarter, with a 9.6 percent increase from the same month of last year. Iran's crude ASTM A572 CS steel carbon plate steel production in March amounted to 6.75 million mt. up by 13.2 percent year on year. The CIS registered a ASTM A572 CS steel carbon plate crude steel output of 25.15 million mt. falling by 0.6 on year-on-year basis, with Russia producing 17.9 million mt, down by one percent, and Ukraine producing 5.32 million mt, falling by 3.4 percent, both on year-on-year basis.
The chemical composition difference between ASTM A572 CS steel carbon plate, Q235B and 20# steel is as follows: The chemical composition of 20# steel: C: 0.17-0.23%, Si: 0.17-0.37%, Mn: 0.35-0.65%, Cr: ≤ 0.25%, Ni: ≤ 0.30%, Cu: ≤ 0.25%. Chemical composition of Q235B steel: C: ≤ 0.20%, Si: ≤ 0.35%, Mn: ≤ 1.40%, P: ≤ 0.045%, S: ≤ 0.045%. The difference of mechanical properties between ASTM A572 CS steel carbon plate, Q235B and 20# steel is as follows: The mechanical properties of 20# steel: tensile strength 410 MPa; yield strength 245 MPa; elongation after fracture: 25; reduction of area: 55; no impact. Q235B steel mechanical properties: tensile strength 370-500 Mpa; yield strength: ≥ 235 Mpa; elongation after fracture: 25; impact absorption energy: 27J.
