The Ferritic Grain Structure A stainless steel’s composition plays a large part in how the metal is structured on a molecular level. Those structures are actually what give the various types of ...

Applications where High Hole Expansion (HHE) or Stretch Flangeable (SF) capabilities are required for enhanced edge stretch capabilities involve the use of FB steels. The microstructure of the FB ...

Duplex stainless steels are typically known to have a dualphase microstructure that contains both ferrite and austenite grains. This so-called microstructure offers a uniquely beneficial combination ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Steel is one of the most widely used engineering materials in the world. Its pre-eminent position amongst the engineering materials arises due to the abundance and low cost of its ...
