Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the production of hot-finished, particularly hot-rolled, seamless pipes having optimized fatigue properties in the welded state, having an outside diameter of up to 711 mm and a nominal wall thickness of up to 100 mm, made of metal, in particular steel. After hot or finish rolling, a defined pipe cross-section is produced on at least one pipe end across a predetermined length, having tight tolerances for inside and outside diameters, wherein the cross-section can then be welded to the pipe end of another pipe. According to the invention, in a region a wall thickness is created in a first step at the pipe end in question, the thickness being bigger than on the remaining pipe body, wherein the outside diameter is increased and/or the inside diameter is reduced.

Abstract: The fire-resistant window of fire resistance class E according to DIN EN 357 has a window frame system (1, 6) and at least one thermally or chemically pre-stressed monolithic fire-resistant glass pane (2) mounted in the window frame system (1, 6). The at least one thermally or chemically pre-stressed monolithic fire-resistant glass pane (2) is made of a high-temperature-melting aluminosilicate glass with a softening point (log ?=7.6) above 875° C., wherein ? is the viscosity, and with a bending strength of over 100 N/mm2. The glass pane (2) is also substantially impermeable to ultraviolet radiation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing seamless line pipes within the quality grade range X 52 to X 90, with a stable yield strength up to a temperature of use of 200° C., and with an essentially constant stress-strain characteristic, by hot-rolling a pipe blank made from a steel which contains the following alloying elements (% by weight): 1 C 0.06-0.18% Si max. 0.40% Mn 0.80-1.40% P max. 0.025% S max. 0.010% Al 0.010-0.060% Mo max. 0.50% V max. 0.10% Nb max. 0.10% N max. 0.015% W >0.30-1.

Abstract: A device and a process for producing thin steel metal bars in which an elongated metal product is brought into contact with a molten metal causing the latter to crystallize. Different materials are used for the elongated metal product and the molten metal, whereby one of the materials is a stainless steel. A temperature of the elongated metal product, a temperature of the molten metal and a dwelling time of the elongated metal product in the molten metal are set in such a way that the molten metal crystallizes on the elongated metal product so as to form a layer having a thickness of 2% to 20% of a thickness of the elongated metal product.

Abstract: Fire-resistant glass, produced by placing between two panes of glass a gel former containing a) an acid aluminum phosphate, b) a reaction product of boric acid with an alkanolamine and one or more alkali metal compounds, and heating the glass to convert the gel former to a gel.

Abstract: Gel formers comprising acid aluminum phosphate and a reaction product of boric acid and an alkanolamine, and further comprising alkali metal compounds in the aluminum: alkali metal ratio of 1:1.3-2.5 require short gelling times, and form gels having improved melting resistance.
