V.YU. and SAMBORSKY M.V. Metal alloying with nitrogen from gas phase in ESR
process.
Using a thermodynamic analysis
an attempt was made to evaluate the feasibility of metal nitriding from a gas
phase during the electroslag remelting (ESR). It was shown experimentally that
in use of slags of Ca-CaF2 system and atmosphere of nitrogen in chamber-type ESR
units the necessary conditions are created for transition of nitrogen to metal
in the amounts sufficient for nitriding. | 2 |

Application of magnetodynamic unit in the technology of electroslag cladding of
steel mill rolls using a liquid metal.
Different types of equipment for steel casting are considered. The use of
a magnetodynamic unit for overheating and pouring of iron-carbon alloys as a
link in the technological diagram of the electroslag cladding of mill rolls is
offered. | 7 |
BIKTAGIROV F.K. Application of electroslag process
with non-consumable electrodes for melting, refining and treatment of metals.
Part 1.
Technologies of electroslag
treatment of metals in which the electroslag process is realized using
non-consumable electrodes are considered. The capabilities of electroslag
heating and refining of molten metals to improve the metal production quality
are shown.

ZHUK G.V. and TRIGUB N.P. New method for dispersing
the melt in electron beam units and equipment for its realisation.
New method for dispersion of the melt from a
cold hearth during the electron beam remelting process has been developed.
Technological fixture for its realisation in the electron beam furnace has been
manufactured. The process of producing aluminium alloy AMg1 ingot by the new
method is described. Macro- and microstructures of the resulting sample have
been examined.

ZHOLUD V.V. and YAKUSHA V.V. Growing of refractory metallic single crystals
(Review).
Basic methods of producing
single crystals from refractory metal from vapour, liquid and solid phases are
considered. Key attention was paid to the methods of producing crystals from the
liquid phase: electron beam zone melting, plasma-arc drop melting,
plasma-induction zone melting. It is shown that the technology of
plasma-induction zone melting developed at the E.O. Paton Electric Welding
Institute of the NAS of Ukraine is the most rational method of producing flat
single crystal billets for further manufacturing of single crystal rolled metal
(sheet, rods, wire).

SHAPOVALOV V.A. Thermal field of tungsten single
crystal in plasma-induction zone melting.
Mathematical model has been selected for study of thermal fields of
single crystals during heating with different sources: plasma-arc,
high-frequency and combined plasma + high-frequency. It is shown that the
combined heating makes it possible to control the curvature of phase interface.
Under certain conditions the surface can become almost plane. The highest
efficiency of the thermal field control is attained when all the crystal is
heated by an inductor.

PATON B.E. and MEDOVAR L.B. Special
electrometallurgy at the beginning of the XXI century.
An attempt was made to estimate the state-of-the-art and
prospects of ferrous metallurgy, including the special electrometallurgy. The
step, jumpy nature of the development of metallurgical technologies over the
recent decades is shown. A conclusion predicts the approaching next period of a
rapid updating of major metallurgical technologies.

ADEEVA L.I., DOROSHENKO L.K. and RUPCHEV V.L. Investigation of interphase
interaction of ferrotitanium with silicon carbide in powder mixtures used for
thermal spray coating.
Exothermal
interaction in FeTi-SiC system was investigated.Maximum exothermal effect was
achieved is use of 79 wt.% FeTi + 21 wt.% SiC mixture with the formation of TiC,
Ti5Si3-xCx, Fe3Si, Fe5Si3
as products of interaction. The powder mixture of this composition is most
challenging for producing composite powders and spraying of thermal coatings
with a high wear and corrosion resistance. | 30 |
GASIK M.M., ZUBOV V.L. and GASIK M.I. Investigation
of phase transformations in commercial ferrosilicium using the method of
synchronous thermal analysis.
Results
of experimental study of phase transformations in ferrosilicium of FS45, FS65
and FS70 grades by a synchronous thermal analysis using a differential scanning
calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry are considered. Thermal effects occurring
in heating and cooling as a result of phase transformations are estimated
quantitatively. The change in mass of samples in the process of heating and
cooling, and also the heat capacity of ferrosilicium within the temperature
20-1350 oC interval are determined. Comparative analysis of
temperature transformations in ferrosilicium of different grades by position of
peaks of DSC curves was made.

RUDOJ A.P., MELNIK V.KH. and PORTNOV A.P. Properties
of alloys based on high-purity chromium.
Chromium alloys, alloyed with lanthanum, iron, nickel and cobalt were
produced from high-purity chromium ingots melted by induction-arc method.
Hardness and transition temperature of these alloys were examined. It is shown
that hardness decreased from 1350 to 1000 MPa, and temperature of brittleness
decreased from 20 to -40 oC. It is also shown that alloy Cr-La-Fe is
easily deformed by rolling and rotational forging. Ductility of this alloy makes
it possible to produce the protective coatings from it. Tests of artillery
barrels with this protective coating for gunpowder erosion showed the 3 times
increase in service life of the barrels.
