There are four types of iron ore : Hematite is reddish color and contains 70% iron Limonite is brownish color and contains 55% iron Magnetite is grayish color and contains 40% iron Taconite is hard rock and contains 33% iron 1. Iron Ore
The second raw material used by the steel industry is bituminous or soft coal. Most coal is mined deep in the ground. Coal as it comes from the earth cannot be used in the iron-making furnace. It must first be changed into coke. 2. Coke
is the third raw material needed in making iron and steel. It is obtained from quarries. • Limestone acts as a kind of chemical sponge in the blast furnace and steel-making furnaces. • It takes up impurities liberated during the furnace operations to form a scum called slag 3. Limestone
Steel classification • Molten iron as it comes from the blast furnace has some impurities. • To change the iron into steel, the impurities must be turned out. • It is done in three different kinds of furnaces Steel manufacturing process are: • 1. Bessemer converter • 2. Open hearth furnace • 3. Electric furnace
A. Primary industry: an industry involved in the initial processing of raw materials into standard stock B. Primary material : a material in the form of standard stock which is utilized in secondary processing C. Processing of material 1. Extraction: open pit mining operations for most metals ( magnesium is converted from sea ) water I. PRIMARY MATERIAL
2. Refining: ore is a compound of metal and oxygen or sulfur ore is refined to remove unwanted minerals • 3. Converting: Metal oxides are reduced to pure metals via blast furnace or electrolysis Pure metals are in the form of pigs (iron) and are processed to make steel ingots • 4. Steel ingots and nonferrous ingots undergo various deformation processes to produce standard stock forms.
A. Tensile strength :Ability of metal to resist being pulled apart • B. Ductility: Ability of a metal to be changed in shape without breaking • C. Toughness :The property that enables a metal to withstand heavy impact forces of sudden shock without fracture • D. Hardness : Property of metal to resist indentation, penetration or scratching • E. Malleability : The ability of a metal to be permanently deformed by rolling, pressing or hammering • F. Machine-ability :The ease or difficulty of cutting metal with a cutting tool. II .

Classification of Carbon Steel • low-carbon steel(mild steel) carbon content 0.05% to 0.30%; tensile strength 51,000 - 70,000 PSI • Medium-carbon steel carbon-content 0.30% to 0.6%; tensile strength 70,000 to 98,000 PSI • High-carbon steel(tool steels) carbon content 0.60% to 1.5%; tensile strength 98,000 to 142,000 PSI B. Carbon Steels

Alloying effects of nickel Increases from 3% to 3.7%; so does wear, corrosion resistance, toughness, and strength. 4. Alloying effects of chromium Increases from 0.3% to 1.6%; chromium steels require additional hardening. C. Alloy Steel
5. Alloying effects of molybdenum Increases up to 9%; so does toughness and shock resistance; in addition, heat treatment and hardenability would be improved. 6. Alloying effects of vanadium Increases from 0.03% to 0.20%; so does tensile strength, yield strength, wear resistance, and impact toughness. 7. Alloying effects of cobalt Increases from 5% to 12%; so does hardness and wear resistance. 8. Alloying effects of tungsten Improves heat treatment quality and wear resistance.
