Table of Different Steels
| Carbon (C) |
1. Increases edge retention and raises tensile strength
2. Increases hardness and improves resistance to wear and abrasion
|
| Chromium (Cr) |
1. Increases hardness, tensile strength and toughness
2. Provides resistance to wear and corrosion
|
| Cobalt (Co) |
1. Increases strength and hardness and permits
quenching in higher temperatures
2. Intensifies the individual effects of other elements in
more complex steels
|
| Copper (Cu) |
1. Increases corrosion resistance
2. Increases wear resistance
|
| Manganese (Mn) |
1. Increases hardenability, wear resistance and tensile strength
2. De-oxidizes and de-gasifies to remove oxygen from molten metal
3. In larger quantities, increases hardness and brittleness
|
| Molybdenum (Mo) |
1. Increases strength, hardness, hardenability, and toughness
2. Improves machinability and resistance to corrosion
|
| Nickel (Ni) |
1. Adds strength, hardness and corrosion resistance
|
| Phosphorous (P) |
1. Improves strength, machinability and hardness
2. Creates brittleness in high concentrations
|
| Silicon (Si) |
1. Increases yield strength
2. Increases tensile strength
3. De-oxidizes and de-gasifies to remove oxygen from molten metal
|
| Sulphur (S) |
1. Improves machinability when used in minute quantities
|
| Tungsten (W) |
1. Adds strength, toughness and hardness
|
| Vanadium (V) |
1. Increases strength, hardness and resistance to shock impact
2. Retards grain growth
