Becoming part of the SSAB family means joining a journey. A journey that we believe is essential for the sustainability of this planet. Steel has been one of the most important materials for developing our society and it will continue to be so. In the roofs over our heads, in the bridges connecting our cities and in the cars of tomorrow. At SSAB we are proud of our history and leadership in high-strength steel. But we are also aware that the production of steel is one of the largest emitters of greenhouse gases in the world. That has to change. That is why we have developed the world's first fossil free steel production and has committed to becoming largely fossil-free by around 2030. As part of SSAB you will be instrumental in realizing this goal and push for the green transformation of the whole steel industry.
About the thesis work
SSAB's world leading plate is mainly produced by reheating, quench and tempering after the rolling process. This work will focus on finding the optimum intercritical heat treatment before the quench and tempering process that results in the best toughness of the plate. The project will include a literature survey, heat treatment in laboratory furnaces, metallography, and thermodynamic calculations.
Extent: 20 weeks full time work (30 hp)
Time period: January - June 2025 on site.
Following steps are suggested
Literature survey
Develop a project plan with activity list
Run the experiments
Continuous evaluation of the results
Written and oral presentation of the results (in Swedish or English)

Words from one of your supervisors
"My name is Magnus Andersson and I will be one of your supervisors during your thesis work. I made a PhD at Royal institute of Technology focused on iron-based shape memory alloys in 1997. Since then I have worked with R&D and product development at different metal producing companies and at a research institute. I am now the manager of the product development team in Oxelösund. I will be fantastic to be part of your thesis work at SSAB."
