General Information: Low Temperature Steel |
||
Most steels (except austenitic stainless steels) become brittle at temperatures below -10 degrees C. At the ductile to brittle transition temperature the impact energy can decrease by a factor 10. Steels containing Ni have a lower ductile to brittle transition temperature. The embrittlement temperature decreases with increasing Ni%. Applicable to very low temperatures. Mechanical properties increase with increasing Carbon concentration. |

Last november was a memorable month for us at Matbase, we passed the milestone of 1000 visitors per day. So I guess we were not that far of when we thought it would be a good idea to make the material database we used as students during our stay at the Delft University of Technology accessable to other people. Apparently, people appreciate the easy way they can lookup the material properties and how we present the data.
