Oxidation of Steels During Hot Rolling (en Inglés) - Zhenyu Liu

This book systematically describes and discusses the influences ofalloying elementsand atmospheres on the oxidation behaviors of hot-rolled steels. The findings can aid in designing new compositions to improve oxide scale adhesion to steel substrates. The effects of rolling temperatures and deformation reductions on oxide scale integrity are also studied in detail. The book describes technologies for producing pickling-free and easy-pickling steels. The author develops and fine-tunes anumerical simulationfor anisothermal oxidation behaviors using classical theories on oxidation kinetics and industrial data. This can accurately predict the evolution ofscale thicknessduringhot rollingand thephase transformationof oxide scale during cooling. Finally, the book discusses processing windows forscale controlto comprehensively improve surface quality of plates, hot coils, and wires. This book is suitable for personnel engaged insteel researchand development and as a reference for post-graduates in related fields.
