Where Does Iron Come From? Naturally
occurring iron exists as iron-oxide (rust)

Iron is also recycled

The only naturally occurring metallic iron on earth comes from meteorites
The largest meteorite discovered in Antarctica is about 2 feet by 2 feet by 1.5 feet. Due to its size it was not able to be thawed in the 100% nitrogen atmosphere and therefore the ice inside melted. The liquid water dissolved minerals inside the meteorite, and when it evaporated, white salts were left on the surface of the meteorite. NASA Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center, Houston, TX.

Iron oxide is converted to metallic iron in a blast furnace
The main chemical reaction producing the molten iron is: Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2[32]
Preheated blast air blown into the furnace reacts with the carbon in the form of coke to produce carbon monoxide and heat.
The carbon monoxide then reacts with the iron oxide to produce molten iron and carbon dioxide

Pig Iron An intermediate product – the result
of smelting with iron ore and carbon Iron and typically about 4% carbon
Also includes sulphur phosphorus and other impurities
Brittle and not very useful

Steel It wasn’t possible to make
steel until about 1850 We don’t call it steel
unless it is less than 2% carbon
An open hearth furnace was used to burn off the excess carbon up until the 1990’s
Carbon can also be burned off with Electric Furnace Oxygen Furnace

The Palmer is named for a U.S. seal hunter who sailed along the west coast of Antarctica in 1820 looking for seal rookeries. Many believe he was the first to discover the continent.

Carbon composition Steel generally has less than about
0.7% C, but can have up to 2.11% C.
Look at the iron phase diagram to remind yourself why

Steel and Iron The phase diagram only strictly
applies to an iron – carbon combination
Steel and iron often have other alloying elements in them, which modify the phase diagram

Cast Iron Has quite a bit more
cementite in it than steel
That makes it hard and brittle
But cementite is a “metastable” compound, that can decompose into iron and graphite with the appropriate thermal treatment http://www.trademadesimple.co.uk/

Wrought Iron This iron is ductile
and malleable and can be “wrought” into a final shape
Wrought iron was the primary high strength structural material until steel became available in the 19th century

The Eiffel Tower was made from Puddle Iron – a form of Wrought Iron

Heat Treatments Process Annealing
Heat the steel just below the eutectoid Removes the effect of cold work
Austenitizing Heat into the region to dissolve the
carbon
![Page 24: Ferrous Alloys Chapter 12 – 4 th Edition Chapter 13 – 5 th Edition](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e7b5503460f94b7cbb9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Microstructure We’ve already discussed the formation of
the eutectoid microstructure If you force the phase change to occur
just below the equilibrium transformation temperature you get spheroidite Large spheroidal particles Steel is easily machined Low strength and hardness
After machining it is heat treated again to improve the properties

Alloying Elements May… Modify the phase diagram Modify the TTT curve Strengthen the steel by precipitation
hardening Reduce Corrosion
![Page 26: Ferrous Alloys Chapter 12 – 4 th Edition Chapter 13 – 5 th Edition](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e7b5503460f94b7cbb9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Stainless Steel >12% Chromium May also contain large amounts of nickel In some stainless steels the austenite
structure survives at room temperature Makes the steel especially corrosion
resistant Non Magnetic

Alloy Steel Alloying elements make it harder to
predict the effect of heat treatments The equilibrium structures are not
always known Even if they are – they aren’t always
achieved
![Page 29: Ferrous Alloys Chapter 12 – 4 th Edition Chapter 13 – 5 th Edition](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e7b5503460f94b7cbb9/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Shopping? Moderate chromium steels can form
Martensite, which is hard and corrosion resistant
Austenitic steel is more corrosion resistant and more ductile (less brittle)
![Page 30: Ferrous Alloys Chapter 12 – 4 th Edition Chapter 13 – 5 th Edition](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e7b5503460f94b7cbb9/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Ian O'Leary (c) Dorling Kindersley
Stainless steel has a broad range of properties
You want Martensite for your
knives and Austenite for your
bowls Remember –
Austenite is not magnetic

Surface Treatments Coatings
Tin, Zinc (galvanized), Aluminum Surface Hardening
Heating, followed by quenching Diffusion of carbon or nitrogen
![Page 32: Ferrous Alloys Chapter 12 – 4 th Edition Chapter 13 – 5 th Edition](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e7b5503460f94b7cbb9/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Welding Problems with welds
do not usually occur in the weld itself
The area around the weld is heated, and changes the microstructure Excessive grain growth Formation of Martinsite
(makes it brittle)

Titanic
A detailed analysis of small pieces of the steel plating from the Titanic's wreck hull found that it was of a metallurgy that loses its elasticity and becomes brittle in cold or icy water, leaving it vulnerable to dent-induced ruptures. The pieces of steel were found to have very high content of phosphorus and sulphur (4x and 2x respectively, compared to modern steel), with manganese-sulphur ratio of 6.8:1 (compare with over 200:1 ratio for modern steels). High content of phosphorus initiates fractures, sulphur forms grains of iron sulphide that facilitate propagation of cracks, and lack of manganese makes the steel less ductile. The recovered samples were found to be undergoing ductile-brittle transition in temperatures of 32 °C (for longitudinal samples) and 56 °C (for transversal samples—compare with transition temperature of -27 °C common for modern steels—modern steel would became so brittle in between -60 and -
70 °C).
