Molybdenum (Mo) : Molybdenum can refine the grain of steel, improve hardenability and thermal strength performance, and maintain sufficient strength and resistance at high temperature Creep ability (long-term under high temperature stress, deformation, called creep).  The mechanical properties of structural steel can[SCALE STEEL] be improved by adding molybdenum.  It can also inhibit the brittleness of alloy steel due to fire.  Redness can be improved in tool steel.  
 
9. Titanium (Ti) : titanium is a strong deoxidizer of steel.  It can make the inner structure of steel compact, refine grain force;  Reduced age sensitivity And cold brittleness.  Improve welding performance.  Intergranular corrosion of [SCALE STEEL]cr 18 ni 9 austenitic stainless steel can be avoided by adding appropriate ti.  
 
10. Vanadium (V) : vanadium is an excellent deoxidizer of steel.  Adding 0.5% vanadium to steel can refine grain structure and improve strength and toughness.  vanadium  
The carbides formed with carbon can improve the resistance to hydrogen corrosion at high temperature and pressure.  
 
11. Tungsten (W) : tungsten melting point is high, significant, is expensive alloy elements.  Tungsten forms tungsten carbide with carbon[SCALE STEEL] and has high hardness and resistance Grinding.  The addition of tungsten to tool steel can significantly improve the red hardness and thermal strength, used as cutting tools and forging dies.  
 
12. Niobium (Nb) : Niobium can refine grain and reduce steel overheating sensitivity and temper brittleness, improve strength, but the plasticity and toughness The decline.  Adding niobium to ordinary low alloy steel can improve the corrosion resistance of atmospheric and high temperature hydrogen, nitrogen and ammonia.  [SCALE STEEL]Niobium can Improve welding performance.  Intergranular corrosion can be prevented by adding niobium into austenitic stainless steel.  
 
13. Cobalt (Co) : Cobalt is a rare precious metal, mostly used in special steels and alloys, such as hot steel and magnetic materials.  
 
14. Copper (Cu) : Wisco with daye ore smelting steel, often contain copper.  Copper improves strength and toughness, especially for atmospheric[SCALE STEEL] corrosion The corrosion performance.  The disadvantage is that it is easy to produce hot brittleness during hot working, and the plastic content of copper exceeds 0.5% is significantly reduced.  When copper content is less than 0.50% has no effect on weldability.  
 
15. Aluminum (Al) : aluminum is commonly used in steel deoxidizer.  Adding a small amount of aluminum to steel can refine grain size and improve impact toughness, such as 08Al steel for deep drawing sheet.  Aluminum also has oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance, aluminum combined with chromium, silicon, can significantly improve steel High temperature performance and high temperature corrosion resistance.  The shortcoming of aluminum is affecting the hot working property, welding property and cutting property of steel Machining performance.  
 
16. Boron (B) : adding trace boron to steel can improve the density and hot rolling properties of steel, improve the strength.  
 
17. Nitrogen (N): nitrogen can improve the strength of steel, low temperature toughness and weldability, increase the aging sensitivity.  Formation of bubbles and porosity.  
 
18. Rare Earth (Xt) : Rare earth elements refer to the 15 lanthanide elements in the periodic table with atomic numbers from 57 to 71.  Actually these elements are metals, but their oxides are so earth-like that they are commonly called rare earths.  Adding rare earths to steel can change the steel- The composition, morphology, distribution and properties of inclusions improve various properties of steel, such as toughness, weldability, cold workability can add rare earth into ploughshare steel can improve wear resistance.

Representation Method:  
1) The brand of processed products  
Aluminum [SCALE STEEL]Association of America (AA) on the deformation of aluminum and aluminum alloy brand expression method, namely four numbers code expression method, as early as 1957 was accepted as the United States national standard (ANSIH35.1), the main aluminum production enterprises in the United States have gradually adopted this brand expression method, later, the United States military standard (MIL),  American Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), American Society of Materials and Testing (ASTM) have been adopted, but also in other countries.  In 1970, based on the four-digit code of AA standard, the international four-digit system of deformed aluminum and aluminum alloy was produced, referred to as IDS.  As a result, the deformed aluminum and aluminum alloy parts of AA standard have become international standards.  1) The first digit of the AA standard four-digit code indicates grouping by major alloy elements. The group is divided as follows:  
1XXX pure [SCALE STEEL]aluminum (aluminum content not less than 99.00%),  
2XXX Al-Cu alloy;  
3XXX Al-Mn alloy;  
4XXX Al-Si alloy;  
5XXX Al-Mg alloy;  
6XXX Al-Mg-Si alloy;  
7XXX Al-Zn alloy;  
8XXX aluminum and other alloys;  
2) The second digit of the four-digit code, indicating the modification, or the control of impurities and combined elements,  
3) The last two digits of a four-digit code (i.e. the third and fourth digits) have the following meanings:  
For group 1XXX, the last two digits represent the two digits after the decimal point of the lowest percentage of pure[SCALE STEEL] aluminum (99.00%), for example: grade 1085, ψ AL9985%.  
For groups 2XXX-8XXX, the last two digits have no specific meaning and are used only as serial numbers to identify different aluminum alloys in the same group.
