* Mild (low carbon) steel: approximately 0.05-0.15% carbon content for low carbon steel and 0.16-0.29% carbon content for mild steel (e.g. AISI 1018 steel). Mild steel has a relatively low tensile strength, but it is cheap and malleable; surface hardness can be increased through carburizing. * Medium carbon steel: approximately 0.30-0.59% carbon content(e.g. AISI 1040 steel). Balances ductility and strength and has good wear resistance; used for large parts, forging and automotive components. * High carbon steel: approximately 0.6-0.99% carbon content. Very strong, used for springs and high-strength wires. * Ultra-high carbon steel: approximately 1.0-2.0% carbon content. Steels that can be tempered to great hardness. Used for special purposes like (non-industrial-purpose) knives, axles or punches. Most steels with more than 1.2% carbon content are made using powder Metallurgy and usually fall in the category of high alloy carbon steels.

How does the engine in a coal train work?
It makes the sound "choo choo" while the carbon burns. *No joke*
Why is idea current in neutral in percentage compare to phase?
Rephrase your question. As it stands, it makes very little sense!
Why is bolt cutters jaws made from high carbon steel?
When you are cutting or drilling metal, it works best when the metal you are cutting or drilling with is harder than the metal you are cutting. Adding carbon to the steel makes it harder (also more brittle), and since bolt cutters are usually cutting metal, making the jaws from a high carbon steel makes them able to cut more metals than if regular steel, and it will also cut with less force/effort.
What is added to steel to make it lighter yet stronger?
Yes a little bit of carbon can makes a much difference in the properties of steel.
What makes stainless steel and steel different?
Steel is simply iron with a small percentage of carbon. It oxidizes (rusts) easily. Stainless steel has added chromium, but also may contain any of the following: nickel, niobium, molybdenum, or titanium. Stainlees steels form a very thin layer of chromium oxide on the surface which protects it from further oxidation. While stainless is not stain-proof, it does stain less than carbon steel. Most stainless steels are non-magnetic, or very weakly magnetic.
What percentage of carbon dioxide is in the earth's crust?
The percentage of carbon dioxide is in the earth's crust is only 0.005%. Oxygen on the other hand makes up for 47% of the crust of the earth.
What element is non metal and makes up the largest percentage of the air?
Nitrogen makes up 75% of the air followed by carbon dioxide and oxygen
What property of charcoal makes it a very good absorbing medium?
Charcoal consists of almost limitless tiny chambers of carbon presenting a labyrinth to absorb chemicals including gases.
What percentage of the worlds atmosphere consists of carbon dioxide and ozone?
Both are trace gases Carbon Dioxide makes up about 0.039% and ozone makes up 0.000004%. If you were to put all of the ozone into one area at standard temperature and pressure the ozone layer would be about 5mm thick.
Is carbon steel a non ferrous metal?
High carbon steel is a metal.The addition of carbon makes the steel harder after heat treatment.
Why nitrogen in air does not react with hemoglobin as it is present in greater percentage then oxygen?
Nitrogen gas is nearly an inert gas. Hemoglobin is optimized for bonding with oxygen, but bonds even better to carbon monoxide (which makes carbon monoxide such an effective poison).
What the percent of carbon-12 and carbon-13 isotopes in nature?
Carbon-12 and carbon-13 are both stable isotopes of carbon. Carbon-12 makes up 98.89 percent of carbon in nature, while carbon-13 makes up only 1.1 percent of carbon.
What is carbon plus something equals carbon dioxide?
carbon plus oxygen makes carbon dioxide
