Properties and Uses of Carbon Steel | Metals | Industries | Metallurgy
Steel has got a variety of applications for engineering purposes due to the wide range of physical properties obtainable by changes in carbon content and heat treatment. First we shall study about the properties and uses of carbon steels. 1. Low-Carbon Steels (0.05 to 0.25% C): These are used where only moderate strength is required together with considerable plasticity. [...]
