The role of vanadium in microalloyed steel - Updated!
The review was originally published in 1999 and received wide dispersal, including translations into Russian and Chinese. After 15 years it was time to renew the content. Most of the original paper has been modified; in several sections it is virtually re-written.
New topics include the role of VN as a nucleant for ferrite formation on cooling and its application in serval product areas such as seamless pipes and heavy sections. Microalloying with vanadium to stabilise microstructures and strength in low carbon bainitic strip steel is another example. The same authors are behind the new edition, ie Lagneborg, Hutchinson, Siwecki and Zajac.
Production of the new monograph is funded by the organization Vanitec.
The monograph is is free of charge and can be ordered from Vanitec (Suite 5, 90 Calverley Road, Tunbridge Wells | Kent, TN1 2UN, UK) or from Swerea KIMAB (louise.parnefjord@swerea.se)
