Abstract: The object of the invention is to improve the performance of the rolls of roughing and finishing stands of a hot strip train or mill and in particular to retard as far as possible the banding phenomenon, namely the phenomenon of the incrusting of hard oxides or scale formed at the conventional rolling temperatures.For this purpose, the roll is made, at least in the working region thereof, from a chrome steel in which the ratio between the respective contents of chromium and carbon is between 7 and 12 and in which the content of equivalent carbon is between 1.5 and 1.7%. This content of equivalent carbon is calculated as the sum of the content of carbon and the content of chromium, the latter being given a coefficient 0.05.

Abstract: This invention relates to a wrought aluminum alloy, to its use for making semifinished and finished products and to processes of improving the properties, particularly the strength properties, of semifinished and finished products made of that alloy.The efforts to improve the properties of aluminum alloys are often successful but restrict the field of application of the material; this is undesirable in view of the need to save raw materials and energy. For this reason a wrought aluminum alloy is desired which has a very wide field of application and which can be made to have properties in a wide range, possibly as a result of a processing under different conditions. The manufacture and recycling of such alloy should not involve special difficulties and the alloy should require only unproblematic alloying elements which are conventionally used with aluminum.
Abstract: A casting alloy is provided containing about 0.02% to 0.05% carbon, about 23% to about 25% chromium, about 8% to 12% nickel, about 5% to 7% molybdenum, about 0.4% to 0.8% manganese, about 0.1% to 0.3% silicon, about 0.1% to 0.4% nitrogen, and the balance essentially iron, the alloy having a duplex austenite-ferrite grain structure, and being resistant to the corrosive effects of acids, chloride solutions and seawater.
