Wiredrawing work hardening rate prediction from rod composition and Stelmor cooling rate variables

$15.00

Three studies were conducted using Design of Experiments on 7/32-in. low carbon steel rod in the carbon range 0.07 to 0.15% to investigate factors influencing the wire work hardening rate. Factors utilized were carbon, Stelmor cooling rate, laying temperature, and boron addition. Resultant models are proposed that predict wire tensile gain.
