Boron Steels
A small amount of boron (0'0005 per cent minimum ) is successfully used in the United States as a replacement
of appreciable quantities of nickel, chromium and moly-bdenum in structural low-alloy steels. The standard AISI grades are designed to replace conventional alloy steels of equivalent hardenability. The boron steels are norma-
lly manufactured by the basic open-hearth process,
although the basic electric furnace process is also
used . Special equipment is not required in their
manufacture and fabrication , but certain precautions
are essential in making the boron addition and fini-
shing the heats. The production of boron steels attained
a maximum of about 0.7 million tons in 1952 and thereaft
-er decreased to about 0.5 and 0.25 million tons in 1953 and 1954 respectively.
Examples are given to show the general influence of
boron on hardenability and mechanical properties of selected steels. A review is made of the literature on
the mechanism of boron in increasing hardenability and
a summary is presented of known facts on the behaciour
of boron in iron and steel
Research on Light Metals in the Metallurgy Division, National Bureau of Standards
THE Metallurgy Division of the National Bureau of Standards has accelerated its research programme on
metals in order to meet the increased demand for materi-als with improved and special properties so essential
for continuing the technological advances of the space arse. Much of the work is designed to furnish basic information on metals and alloys in terms of their structures. Studies are being conducted on problems related to creep, fatigue, corrosion , metal physics , preparation of extremely pure metals and other related fields . Some of' the emphasis of the prograninie is
being placed on evaluating specific properties of aluminium, titanium , magnesium, and their alloys

NBS monograph
From Abstract: "This Monograph has been prepared to give an understanding of heat treatment principally to those unacquainted with this subject. This Monograph has been prepared to answer such inquiries and to give in simplified form a working knowledge of the basic theoretical and practical principles involved in the heat treatment of iron and steel.

NBS monograph
From Abstract: "This Monograph is a revision of the previous NBS Monograph 18. Its purpose is to provide an understanding of the heat treatment of iron and steels, principally to those unacquainted with this subject. The basic principles involved in the heat treatment of these materials are presented in simple form." From Introduction: "This Monograph has been prepared to answer such inquires and to give in simplified form a working knowledge of the basic theoretical and practical principles involved in the heat treatment of iron and steel.
