Answers

  • What are the industrial applications of wire?

    Wire rod serves an extremely wide range of purposes in industry. 

    First, in the construction sector, it is a vital element for building robust frameworks. It is used to reinforce concrete structures, enhancing the stability and seismic resistance of buildings.

    In manufacturing, wire rods also plays a key role. For instance, in automotive production, wire can be processed into various components such as springs, screws, and rivets.

    In the machining industry, wire rod is frequently used to manufacture transmission components like shafts and gears.

    Wire also holds significant importance in the metal products sector. For instance, it is employed in the production of steel wire mesh, steel wire ropes, and similar products.


  • What are Q235R and Q345R?

    Q245R and Q345R are two commonly used pressure vessel steel plate materials. The "R" in the designation stands for "vessel," and the number indicates the yield strength grade.

    Yield Strength:
    Q235R has a yield strength of approximately 235 MPa, while Q345R has a yield strength of up to 345 MPa. This means that under the same external force, Q345R is more resistant to deformation and offers greater structural safety.

    Chemical Composition:
    Q235R has a relatively high carbon content, while its manganese content is within a certain range. Q345R, on the other hand, has a lower carbon content and stricter control over impurities such as phosphorus and sulfur. This allows Q345R to maintain good strength while also exhibiting superior ductility, toughness, and weldability.

    Q235R typically has a temperature limit of around 400°C, making it suitable for low- to medium-temperature and pressure environments. Q345R, on the other hand, boasts increased strength and thermal stability due to the addition of trace alloying elements, allowing for safe long-term use below 450°C. Both steels are widely used in petrochemical, boiler, and storage tank equipment, and the selection process should consider both operating temperature and pressure requirements.


  • What is the difference between Q235B and Q235D?

    Both Q235D and Q235B are carbon structural steels. Ordinary carbon structural steel plate is a type of steel.
    The "Q" represents the yield strength of the material, and the "235" at the end refers to the yield value of the material, which is approximately 235 MPa.

    Chemical Composition
    Q235B: C ≤ 0.20; Mn ≤ 1.40; Si ≤ 0.35; S ≤ 0.045; P ≤ 0.045.
    Q235D: C ≤ 0.17; Mn ≤ 1.40; Si ≤ 0.35; S ≤ 0.035; P ≤ 0.035.

    Low-Temperature Impact Toughness
    Q235D: -20°C impact toughness test performed.
    Q235B: Room-Temperature (20°C) impact toughness test performed.

    Q235B is suitable for applications where performance requirements are guaranteed at room temperature (20°C), while Q235D requires performance to be maintained at -20°C.

    Strength and Plasticity:
    Both have similar yield strength (≥235 MPa) and tensile strength (375–500 MPa);
    However, due to its pure composition and rigorous manufacturing process, Q235D exhibits superior plasticity and low-temperature stability.
