Method of making a hot-rolled steel sheet having superior surface appearance, free of surface patterns and uneven glossiness from an austenitic stainless steel slab containing about 0.03 percent by weight or more of Cu, about 0.03 percent by weight or more of V, and about 0.01 percent by weight or more of Mo under any of the following conditions: (A) pickling in a nitric-hydrofluoric acid solution containing about 20 to 100 g/l of nitric acid and about 100 to 300 g/l of hydrofluoric acid; (B) controlling nitric-hydrofluoric acid content in response to the iron ion content in the solution; (C) a preliminary pickling step prior to finishing pickling; (D) grinding about 2 .mu.m or more of the surface after preliminary pickling and prior to finishing pickling; (E) causing counterflow with a relative flow rate of 0.5 to 5.0 m/sec on the sheet surface during finishing pickling; (F) adding sulfuric acid or sulfurous acid as a hydrogen ion source to the nitric-hydrofluoric acid solution; and (G) electrolysing during finishing pickling such that the ratio of the cathodic electrolysis time to the anodic electrolysis time is about 3 or more.

Method of making austenitic stainless steel sheet

A laminate material and a uniaxially oriented laminate which contains an additive but does not suffer from the trouble caused by the exudation of said additive, and the laminate material comprises an inner layer composed of an orientable resin A containing an additive and coating layers composed of a resin B and being applied onto both surfaces of said inner layer to prevent the additive from exudation and the uniaxially oriented laminate is prepared by uniaxially stretching the above laminate material.

Device for detecting defects of web

Disclosed herein is a fibrillated weatherproof web having a network structure, which can be produced with ease and is economical. The web comprises a multilayer composite film composed of at least two layers, one being a first layer (I) made of a first thermoplastic resin and the other a second layer (II) made of a second thermoplastic resin having a melting point lower than the first thermoplastic resin and containing at least 300 ppm of a light resistance imparting agent. A number of slits have been formed in a longitudinal or transverse direction. The web has been oriented at a draw ratio in a range of from 1.1 to 15 times. A nonwoven fabric making use of one or more fibrillated webs of the above sort and processes for the production of the web and nonwoven fabric are also disclosed.
