Abstract
"The change in relative electric resistance of five commercial steels, Armco Ingot Iron and Pure Iron were studied over the temperature range of 800°C to 1100°C in an attempt to correlate the phenomena of hot or red shortness with a change in the Electric resistance .
The results from the above resistance measurements were compared with mechanical tests of the same steels to show that at the point at which the iron sulfide liquid forms there is a definite change in the slope of the electric resistance vs temperature curve.
Also studied was a discontinuity in the electric resistance vs temperature (curve) at the temperature of the alpha to gamma transformation.
Microscopic examination showed the form of the inclusions and the effect of the test on the grain size and structure"--Abstract, page 7.
