摘要: The goal of the proposed project is to further develop and market advanced 70-ksi-yield strength super-tough steel (designated as NUCu60ST in the text) for use in tank cars transporting cryogenic liquids, like chlorine, for example. Fracture of these tanks resulted in a number of industrial accidents. One in 2005 in Graniteville, South Carolina led to nine deaths and at least 250 injuries. This is a joint project with Union Tank Car Company (UTLX). Developed and investigated at Northwestern University by prior funding from ITI and CCITT, the super-tough cyrogenic steel was included into the 'Next-Generation Rail Tank Car Project',an innovative joint initiative of the three companies (Dow, Union Pacific and UTLX), Association of American Railroads (AAR), and US and Canada Departments of Transportation focused on the design and implementation of a next-generation rail tank car with enhanced ability to safely transport hazardous chemicals.
