  • Patent number: 7806165
    Abstract: In a method for making hot strips, a workable lightweight construction steel is used which in particular can easily be deep-drawn cold and includes the main elements Si, Al and Mn, with high tensile strength and good TRIP and/or TWIP characteristics. The mass % are as follows for C 0.04 to <1.0, Al 0.05 to <4.0, SI 0.05 to ?6.0; Mn 9.0 to ?30.0, the remainder being iron with the common incidental steel elements. The melt is cast in a horizontal strip casting unit, close to the final dimensions at calm flow and without bending to form a pre-strip in the range between 6 and 15 mm, and subsequently is fed for further processing.

  • Patent number: 7504010
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a dimensionally stable oxygen-evolving anode for use in an electrolytic cell for the production of aluminium. The anode comprises of a container made from an alloy comprising aluminium and at least one metal more noble than aluminium; a fluid bath in the bottom of the container having the ability to dissolve aluminium, said fluid having a density that is higher than the density of molten aluminium at the operating temperature of the cell, a pool of molten aluminium floating on top of the fluid bath in the bottom of the container; a refractory layer arranged on the inner sidewalls of the container at least in the area of the pool of molten aluminium, said refractory layer protecting the molten aluminium from contacting the inner sidewalls of the container.

  • Publication number: 20070125454
    Abstract: The invention concerns a steel for lightweight construction, consisting of a multiphase structure. In the case of a duplex steel, it consists of mixed ferrite (?) and austenite (?) crystals. In the case of a triplex steel, it comprises, additioally to said two phases, martensitic (?) and/or (?) phases. The volumetric weight of the inventive steel is low as a result of the high proportion of light alloys A1, Si Mn, Mg, Ga and Be. The inventive alloys have a volumetric weight of less than 7b/cm3.

  • Patent number: 6659162
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing metal foams and to the metal bodies in foam form which are obtained in this way. The process for producing large-area integral metal foam by adding a blowing agent to a metal melt, is distinguished by the fact that the metal melt is introduced continuously into a roll nip and is brought into contact with a blowing agent which releases gases and is solid at room temperature, is formed in the roll stand and is fully foamed to form a large-area integral metal foam.
