In 1889 Riley of Glasgow discovered that additions of nickel significantly enhanced the
tensile strength of mild steel, and in 1905 Portevin observed that steels containing more than …

Austenitic stainless steels are an extraordinary family of alloys that have exceptional
corrosion resistance and equally impressive mechanical properties. They have unsurpassed …

This book discusses the stainless steels for high-strength, heat-resistant or corrosion-
resistant applications. It is a treatment of the properties and selection of stainless steels. Up …

Designed as a basic and introductory reference, this book not only addresses stainless
steels in the light of their resistance to corrosion for which they are more commonly …

Two high nitrogen stainless steels are studied through metallographic, mechanical and
corrosionistic tests and the results are compared with those shown by a standard AISI 304 …

This reference documents ferrous alloy development as presented in Alloy Digest since
1952. Its concise data sheet summaries (which run about two pages) provide material …

The development of the nitrogen-strengthened austenitic stainless steels has resulted in
materials having interesting and useful properties that are quite different from the …

The History of Stainless Steel provides a fascinating glimpse into a vital material that we may
take for granted today. Stainless steel, called" the miracle metal" and" the crowning …
