Abstract
IN the heat treatment of steel during manufacture, scale is formed on the surface by oxidation. This involves a loss of metal which in the aggregate is enormous. Moreover, the actual monetary loss is much increased from the damage to the surface, necessitating machining, and from the production of wasters outside specified dimensions.
