Abstract:
A process for separating molten metals, the molten metals being treated with metal hydrides is provided. The molten metals employed are from Groups II-IV of the Periodic Table of Elements and the subgroups, including their alloys, and are distinguished by the fact that the metals or alloys are reacted with a metal hydride in a molten bath.
Abstract:
The invention relates to activated magnesium metal, to a method of activating magnesium metal and to its use for the preparation of organomagnesium compounds. The activated magnesium metal is obtainable by reacting molten magnesium metal with magnesium hydride; or by heating a mixture of magnesium metal and magnesium hydride until molten.

A high-strength steel sheet comprises, by weight, not less than 0.25% and not more than 0.5% of C, not less than 4% and not more than 14% of Mn, not less than 6.5% and not more than 9.5% of Cr, and not less than 0.3% and not more than 3% of Si. The high-strength steel sheet satisfies formulas 1 and 2, formula (1) being 12≦2.0Si+5.5Al+Cr+1.5Mo≦25 and formula (2) being 13≦30C+0.5Mn+0.3Cu+Ni+25N≦17, and mainly consists of austenite, and the high-strength steel sheet has yield strength of not less than 1000 MPa and total elongation of not less than 20%. In formulas 1 and 2, each element in the above formulas indicates the content, in weight %, of the element.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for making hot strips, made from a workable lightweight construction steel which in particular can easily be deep-drawn cold, includes the main elements Si, Al and Mn, with high tensile strength and good TRIP and/or TWIP characteristics. The mass % are as follows for C 0.04 to ≦1.0, Al 0.05 to ≦4.0, Si 0.05 to ≦6.0; Mn 9.0 to ≦30.0, the remainder being iron with the common incidental steel elements. The melt is cast in a horizontal strip casting unit, close to the final dimensions at calm flow and without bending to form a pre-strip in the range between 6 and 15 mm, and subsequently is fed for further processing.
Abstract:
A high-strength lightweight steel and its use for car parts and facade linings is a purely ferritic steel having, in mass %, more than 5 to 9% Al, less than 0.2% Si, and 0.03 to 0.2% Mn.
Abstract:
In a fusion-metallurgical process of producing fine-grained hereogeneous, ductile alloys which contain Mg.sub.2 Si, the grain size of the Mg.sub.2 Si crystallites formed by primary solidification is kept below 30 .mu.m by doping the molten alloy with 0.05 to 2% by weight of phosphorus.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a dimensionally stable oxygen-evolving anode for use in an electrolytic cell for the production of aluminium. The anode comprises of a container made from an alloy comprising aluminium and at least one metal more noble than aluminium; a fluid bath in the bottom of the container having the ability to dissolve aluminium, said fluid having a density that is higher than the density of molten aluminium at the operating temperature of the cell, a pool of molten aluminium floating on top of the fluid bath in the bottom of the container; a refractory layer arranged on the inner sidewalls of the container at least in the area of the pool of molten aluminium, said refractory layer protecting the molten aluminium from contacting the inner sidewalls of the container.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for producing metal foams and to the metal bodies in foam form which are obtained in this way. The process for producing large-area integral metal foam by adding a blowing agent to a metal melt, is distinguished by the fact that the metal melt is introduced continuously into a roll nip and is brought into contact with a blowing agent which releases gases and is solid at room temperature, is formed in the roll stand and is fully foamed to form a large-area integral metal foam.
