Abstract
Boron is a chemical element that affects astrongly the hardenability of structural steel The property of boron to increase hardenability has led to the creation of numerous boron-containing steels. At present, the main difficulties in their production have been overcome and the necessary experimental material for calculating the mechanical properties, including hardenability, has been accumulated. The standard J-406SAE describing a method for calculating the hardenability of boron steels has been issued in the U. S. The present work concerns the possibility of applying the method to domestic steels.
