In the present study, M2 high speed steels were fabricated by using electro-slag rapid remelting process. Carbide structure was analysed and the fracture toughness and hardness were also measured after austenitization treatment at 1190 and 1210C followed by tempering treatment at 535C for billets with various diameters from 16 to 60 mm. Electro-slag rapid remelting (ESRR) process is an advanced...

in this research, the influence of chemical composition of slags and the melting rate on the impurity of commercial grade iron in esr processing has been investigated.the chemical composition and microstructure studies were evaluated, using spectrophotometer,omand edx analyses attached to sem.the results show that esr process has successfully reduced the amount and size of inclusions. in some c...

in this study, attempts were made to recovery the used turbine blades made up of inconel738 by electro slag remelting (esr) method. using an appropriate slag and addition of metallic aluminum, the original composition was maintained and the amount of oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen remained in the acceptable level. in order to explore the effect of remelting with esr on the microstructure, tensil...

This study focused on the effect of electro slag remelting process (ESR) on microstructure and composition of an as-cast alloy of Cu-Cr-Zr. These observations revealed that applying ESR process results in a more uniform distribution of alloying elements, however a slight aggregation of large precipitates and inclusions existed in as-cast ingot was found. Additionally, impurities like P, S and M...
