Abstract

A summary is given of the tests which were conducted to appraise the utility of phosphorus steels in vitreous enameling. Enameling tests were conducted on both killed and rimmed steels of low-carbon iron and steel with a phosphorus content up to 0.60%. Phosphorus was found to reduce the sag of laboratory-prepared enameling stock to a marked degree. The most effective range of phosphorus was from 0.10 to 0.15%, and killed steels were superior to rimmed steels in their sag resistance. Phosphorus appeared to have no significant influence on common enameling defects. In amounts of less than 0.40%, it had no marked effect on the adherence of the enamel. The deep drawing qualities of the sheet, based on Olsen ductility tests, were somewhat impaired by phosphorus. This is in line with the strong tendency for phosphorus to raise the strength of the sheet.
