Physical Property Determination for Process Monitoring and Control

Cold rolled and recrystallised steel strips in general are applied where the fitness for use asks for a high degree in deep drawability and surface quality features like low roughness and waviness. The good characteristic deep drawability of the steel grades developed for this purpose is achieved by low carbon contents (<0.05 per cent) and is described today by the properties of the standard tensile test: yield strength, tensile strength, percentage elongation
