Tailoring scale characteristics during steel processing

Objetivo

The aim of the project is to improve the surface quality of carbon and low alloy steel products to meet increasingly stringent customer requirements by tailoring the scale characteristics to the ideal requirements of each stage of the steel processing route and controlling the nature of the scale on the final product. Laboratory, pilot plant and works trials will be performed using material subjected to various processes on selected types of steel with different initial surface conditions. Scale adhesion will be assessed by hydraulic descaling and hot bend and cold bend tests, aided by acoustic emission, and it will be related to visual, instrumental and metallographic observations. The project will also identify potential improvements to the hydraulic descaling process when removing primary scale formed during reheating and the
