Characteristics of High Content Steel Briquettes Using Nanosized Solid Binders.

ABSTRACT

In this study, we investigated the characteristics of high-content steel briquettes produced using various nanoscale solid binders and steel byproducts (SS, SCS, SLD, and BSD). The average particle size was 0.171 nm for S5, 0.065 nm for S1, 0.058 nm for S4, and 0.040 nm for S2 and S3. The SEM-EDS analysis of the solid power binder resulted in mostly rectangular images. The compressive strength of the high-content steel briquettes was 120 kgf/cm², with the highest HSL1 using S4 binders. The compressive strength of the high-content steel briquettes was in the order of HSS4 > HSS1 > HSS3 > HSS5 > HSS2.
