Bismuth Improves Stainless Steel Machinability
A Battelle Memorial Institute team led by H Pray R S Peoples and F W Fink found bismuth added at 0.1 to 0.5 percent to stainless steel speeds machining by about 25 percent without reducing corrosion resistance or affecting strength. The discovery, sponsored by the Alloy Casting Institute, aims to cut costs in manufacture and handling for defense and other industries.
