Excerpt from The Present Technical Condition of the Steel Industry of the United States Phosphorus - This is the most trying element to steel makers, as it is found in nearly all iron ores; it all goes into the iron when reduced to the metallic state in the blast furnace, and up to the present day it has defied all efforts to keep it out of the steel, except in the very latest, the basic process of conversion, to which farther reference will be made. The tendency of the phosphorus when present in the steel is to render it brittle, although the degree to which this tendency shall prevail depends to an important extent upon which and how much of each of the other elements are present at the same time. Careful study of the wear of rails has been made, taken together with extensive analyses of known cases of wear, in the expectation or hope that some direct or useful clew could be found to the best relation which these elements should bear to one another. It does not appear, however, that the facts in the case have yet been so fully developed as to warrant such a summary of the whole relations of these elements as Shall command the approval of all who have aided in the gathering and the study of these facts. All indications seem to agree that some of the important physical qualities of steel do not depend solely upon these elements which may be present even in proportions that had seemed fully approved, but rather upon some additional relations, still some what obscure, between them, or the relation which these bear to the molecular structure of the metal as a crystalline body. Rare metals in combination - These unusual metals, such as chromium and titanium, either very seldom found at all in combination with steel or in extremely minute quantities, have formed the subject of careful study among experimenters, but it does not appear that they possess any importance whatever to the steel manufacturer or consumer in the large majority of cases.
