Djakonov O.M., Litvinko A.A., Sereda V.Ju. Estimation of quality of hot pressed briquettes as a type of metallurgical charge materials
The basic principles of construction are formulated in the work and a description of the technological process of hot briquetting of ferrous metal waste as a way of converting fine metal particles into a dimensional semi-finished product of a given size and chemical composition is given. The description of equipment for the implementation of this process with highly efficient non-oxidizing heating and complete safe neutralization of flue gases is given. The results of melting of hot-pressed briquettes in various melting units are presented. It is shown that briquettes cleaned from coolant with a density of 6500…7100 kg/m3 are full-fledged substitutes for bulk scrap.
Keywords:Hot, briquetting, metal, cast iron, steel, shavings, briquette, smelting, technology, modes, equipment, production.

Davydov S.V. Diagram of the state of alloys the system iron-carbid ?-Fе2C. Part 2. Physico-chemical identification of carbide phases
It is shown that the whole set of structural organization of phases (alloys) on the "iron-carbon" diagram from 6.67% C (cement O-Fe₃C) to 9.7% C (carbide ?-Fe₂C) can be characterized as a single isomorphic quasicarbide solid solution, which includes the introduction phases of the stoichiometric compositions of O-Fe₃C cement, Hegg carbide ?-Fe₅C₂, Extreme-Adcoccus carbide ?-Fe₇C₃ and ?-Carbide Fe₂C. Since the solid cement slurry cannot be a component of the alloy state diagram, the component of the diagram is a chemical compound of bertolide ?-Fe₂C and the "iron-cement" diagram can be renamed to the "iron-carbide ?-Fe₂C" alloy state diagram in the concentration region 0...9.7% C with good reason.
Keywords:Cementite O-Fe₃C, ?-Carbide Fe₂C, Hegga carbide ?-Fe₅C₂, Extreme-Adcocca carbide ?-Fe₇C₃, bertollide, daltonide, isomorphic quasicarbide solid solution.

Malinov L.S., Malinov V.L., Burova D.V. Normalization of low-current steels with residence in the intercritical interval of temperatures
It is shown that normalization of the investigated low-carbon low-alloy steels with holding in the intercritical temperature range (ITR) increases the mechanical properties in comparison with the normalization carried out according to the standard technology. The highest level of mechanical properties of steels is achieved by carrying out normalization with heating above Ac3 to a typical austenitizing temperature before or after holding in ITR.

Doroshenko V.S. Lost foam casting process
The complex application of friable sands in the full-form casting technology made it possible to design a casting as a metal structure that is generated in the flowing sand environment and can be optimized according to nature's evolutionary algorithms. The friable sand also allows one to remove a hot casting from the casting mold for the subsequent heat treatment by various methods, in particular by quenching carried out by sand fluidization in the mold followed by isothermal holding in the hot sand. Such abilities of the friable molding sand serve as a prerequisite for the production of light-weight castings from high-strength alloys and new-generation alloys serving as adaptive materials with adjustable properties.
Keywords:Consumable patterns, castings, high-strength alloys, martensite.
