hela Sverige We want to be more! The research institute Swerim conducts needs-based industrial research and development concerning metals and their route from raw material to finished product. Swerim has 200 co-workers in two locations in Sweden - Luleå and Stockholm. Our vision is a fossil-free and circular industry.
Are you passionate about materials science and metallurgy? Do you want to contribute to the development of advanced steel treatment methods that can revolutionize the industry? We are offering an exciting master's thesis opportunity focused on investigating the effects of pretreatment process on steel's properties.
Project Description:
Steel is one of the most widely used materials in various industries due to its excellent mechanical properties, such as strength, toughness, and durability. However, many applications, especially in demanding environments like within the energy sector, require surface properties that exceed the capabilities of untreated steel. Pretreatment methods, such as nitriding or aluminizing, have proven to significantly enhance surface characteristics, such as hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and thermal stability.
This master's thesis will focus on investigating the structural and microstructural changes in steel resulting from various pre-treatment processes and their impact on the material's performance in industrial applications.
Your Role:
• Conduct a literature review on steel pretreatment processes.
• Perform laboratory experiments on steel samples under various conditions.
• Use advanced characterization techniques (SEM, XRD, GD-OES, etc.) to evaluate the treated steel's properties.
• Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team in materials science.
• Present your findings in a comprehensive thesis.
Qualifications:
• Background in materials science, chemical engineering, or metallurgy.
• Strong interest in surface engineering, steel treatment, and experimental research.
• Knowledge of laboratory equipment and characterization techniques is a plus.
Project time
The project is intended for a master thesis (30hp). The start date is February 2025 or can be mutually decided through negotiations.
Further information
This project is intended to be performed at Swerim in Stockholm. Swerim rewards the student with 50 000 SEK for an approved master thesis (30hp).
