Researchers at the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER), led by Dr. Hookyung Lee, have developed an electrified heat treatment technology that replaces fossil fuels with electricity in the metal ...

(Phys.org) —A trio of researchers with South Korea's Graduate Institute of Ferrous Technology has found a way to create a new low-density steel that is stronger, lighter and more flexible than the ...

Induction annealing provides precise and reliable control of metal material properties. It is predominantly used for soft and stress-relief annealing, providing a number of advantages over traditional ...

The properties of steel can be improved in terms of fatigue, weldability, hardness, wear and corrosion resistance, ductility, and tensile strength by either alloy addition or heat treatment processes.

A Swiss research team has developed a novel single-step annealing process for tunnel oxide passivating contact (TOPCon) solar cells. Demonstrating the approach, the scientists built a proof-of-concept ...

Rosatom announced yesterday it has extended the service life of unit 1 of its Balakovo nuclear power plant in the Saratov region of Russia by using thermal annealing on the VVER-1000's reactor ...
