Current applications and prospects for utilization of steel sheets at JCS AVTOVAZ

International Symposium on Niobium Microalloyed Sheet Steel for Automotive Application

2006
Tikhonov, A K
To summarize the above, AVTOVAZ has to be prepared for such changes in the market. While steel remains the main material for vehicle body manufacturing, energy costs per one ton of aluminum produced are still around 5 times as higher on a per ton basis compared to steel. (AU)

Grain refinement of Al-Si alloys by Nb-B inoculation
The Charles Hatchett Award is important to identify new applications and markets for Niobium. Introduced over 40 years ago, the Charles Hatchett Award is sponsored by CBMM Niobium and recognizes the best published research on the science and technology of Niobium. The annual award brings together technical experts from around the world and the winning paper is selected by a panel of international experts. This Charles Hatchett Award 2016 winners video introduces the research on the grain refinement of Al-Si Alloys by Nb-B inoculation, including concept development and its effect on binary alloys and subsequent application in commercial Aluminum alloys.
