Title: Seung-Han Baek: Innovator in Vibration Damping Alloy Steel
Introduction
Seung-Han Baek is a prominent inventor based in Seoul, South Korea. He has made significant contributions to the field of materials science, particularly in the development of vibration damping alloy steels. With a total of 2 patents to his name, Baek's work is recognized for its innovative approaches to alloy manufacturing.
Latest Patents
Baek's latest patents include the development of an Fe-Mn vibration damping alloy steel and a method for making the same. This alloy steel features a mixture structure of .epsilon., .alpha.', and .gamma.. The composition consists of iron and manganese in the range of 10 to 24% by weight, along with limited amounts of impurities. The manufacturing process involves preparing an ingot at temperatures between 1000°C to 1300°C for 12 to 40 hours to ensure homogenization. The ingot is then hot-rolled to produce a rolled alloy bar or plate, followed by solid solution treatment at 900°C to 1100°C for 30 to 60 minutes. The cooling process can be done using air or water, and the alloy is cold-rolled at a reduction rate greater than 0% and below 30% at around room temperature.
Another notable patent is the Fe-Mn group vibration damping alloy manufacturing method. This method produces a vibration damping alloy with a mixed structure of martensite and austenite. The alloy is iron-based, with 14-22% by weight of manganese added. The manufacturing process includes mixing electrolytic iron and manganese in a molten state, casting the molten mixture as an ingot, and homogenizing it at 1000°C to 1300°C for 20-40 hours. The ingot is then hot rolled at 900°C to 1100°C for 20 to 90 minutes and cooled with air or water.
