Stainless steels mill products

Tellurium s major use is as an alloy with copper and stainless steel. It makes these metals easier to machine and mill (cut on a lathe). It is also used as a vulcanizing agent in the production of rubber, as a coloring agent for glass and ceramics, and for thetffloelectrical devices. 

A stoichiometric 1 1 mixture (200 g) of the loosely premixed commercial crystals of 236h and 77b, both at >99% purity, were fed to a stainless-steel 2-L horizontal ball-mill (Simoloyer) equipped with a hard-metal rotor, steel balls (2 kg 100Cr6 5-mm diameter), and water cooling. The temperature was 15 °C at the walls with a maximum of 19 °C in the center of the mill. The rotor was run at 900 rpm (the power was 610 W) for 15 min for quantitative reaction. A 100% conversion and 100% yield was indicated by m.p., IR spectrum, chemical analyses, and DSC experiments. The product 54h-H20 was milled out for... 

Mills and Hoffmann (1992) investigated ultrasonic degradation of parathion. Parathion (0,0-diethyl O-p-nitrophenyl triphosphate) is a major pesticide used in large quantities worldwide. Organophosphate esters such as parathion have been used as alternatives to DDT and other chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides however, the organophosphate esters are not rapidly degraded in natural waters. At 20°C and pH 7.4, parathion has a hydrolytic half-life of 108 days and its toxic metabolite, paraoxon, has a similar half-life of 144 days. Ultrasonic irradiation of 25 mL of parathion-saturated, deionized water solution was conducted in a water-jacketed, stainless-steel cell with a Branson 200 sonifier operating at 20 kHz and 75 W/cm2. The temperature of the sonicated solution was kept constant at 30°C. All sonolytic reactions were carried out in air-saturated solution. The concentration of the parathion hydrolysis product p-nitrophenol (PNP) was determined in alkaline solution with a Shimadzu MPS-2000 UV /visible spectrophotometer. 

Bipolar plates are currently made from milled graphite or gold-coated stainless steel. Ongoing research is aiming to replace these materials with polymers or low-cost steel alloys, which will allow the use of low-cost production techniques. Even today, bipolar plates can be produced at 200 /kW, if the production volume... 

In many milling applications, mill manufacturers offer a choice of steels for product-contact surfaces (such as mill liner), usually at least one low-alloy carbon steel, and higher-alloy stainless steels. The exact alloys vary significantly with mill type. Stainless steels are used in applications where corrosion may occur (many wet grinding operations, but also high-alkali or high-acid minerals), but are more expensive and have lower wear resistance. 

The reactions were conducted in a custom-made 0.5 x 2.0 in screw-capped stainless steel vial and milled with an 0.250 in aluminum oxide ball-bearing in a Spexx certiprep mixer/mill 8000 M for approximately 17 h. Various para-substituted aryl methyl benzoates were reduced using a 5 1 ratio of lithium chloride sodium boro-hydride. At the conclusion of the reaction, the products were washed with 10% HC1 and the remaining solids were dried over a Hirsch funnel. Liquid products were isolated by extraction from a minimal amount of ethyl acetate. 

A mixture of an unsaturated ketone, ethyl acetoacetate and K2C03 in a molar ratio of 1 1 0.1 was introduced, together with a stainless-steel ball of 6.0 mm diameter, into a stainless-steel capsule (9.0 x 26.0 mm2). The reaction capsule was fixed on the vibration arm of a home-built ball-milling apparatus, and was vibrated vigorously at a rate of 3500 rpm at room temperature. The resulting powder was collected and washed with 10 mL of water to remove K2C03 completely and then dried to afford the desired product 2. 

The basic nuclear reactor fuel materials used today are the elements uranium and thorium. Uranium has played the major role for reasons of both availability and usability. It can be used in the form of pure metal, as a constituent of an alloy, or as an oxide, carbide, or other suitable compound. Although metallic uranium was used as a fuel in early reactors, its poor mechanical properties and great susceptibility to radiation damage excludes its use for commercial power reactors today. The source material for uranium is uranium ore, which after mining is concentrated in a "mill" and shipped as an impure form of the oxide UjO (yellow cake). The material is then shipped to a materials plant where it is converted to uranium dioxide (UO2), a ceramic, which is the most common fuel material used in commercial power reactors. The UO2 is formed into pellets and clad with zircaloy (water-cooled reactors) or stainless steel (fast sodium-cooled reactors) to form fuel elements. The cladding protects the fuel from attack by the coolant, prevents the escape of fission products, and provides geometrical integrity.
