Unlocking the effect of residual elements
via the NANOengineering of Sustainable MARTensitic steels
The NANO-S-MART project is dedicated to the development of innovative steel applications with low carbondioxide (CO2) emissions
The project aims to leverage innovative low CO2 production methods, combining DRI and EAF, to enhance scrap utilization (ESU) in as-quenched and quenched+tempered (Q&T) martensitic steels.
However, the increased use of scrap is expected to introduce levels of residual elements never seen before into the steel composition, impacting its properties.
However, the increased use of scrap is expected to introduce levels of residual elements never seen before into the steel composition, impacting its properties
_ Consequently, there is a need to re-engineer
martensitic steels for compatibility with these new
production routes.
The objective of this project is to systematically map and evaluate the impact of the increase in residual element levels and the influence of processing, at macro-, micro- and nano-scale level in as-quenched and quenched+tempered martensitic steels.
