Iron andSteel, especially qualified steel, is an indicator of a country's economy, industry, and most importantly, its development.
Why is quaity seel importan
Qualified-Qualified steel is an idispensable and indispensable raw material for the production of all transportation vehicles such as automotive, energy, health, ships, submarines, aircraft, railways, and machinery, the heart of the industry, especially in the defense industry.
The feature that makes qualified steel the most valuable is its high strength values in engineering applications. Steel is formed as a result of adding certain proportions of carbon to pig iron. Various alloying agents are added to this steel, and its quality is increased (qualified). The strongest market demand for steel in Turkey is the construction sector. Approximately 65% comes from the construction sector.
Although Japan, China and India are in the top 3 in world steel production; In the production of qualified steel, especially Sweden, USA and Germany, France, Austria and Japan have considered this issue as their country strategy and have taken the first place in this field.
These developed countries generally impose an embargo on other developing countries, especially on defense industry and high-tech products, keeping the material information used in the product in a strategic position and restricting the information. At the beginning of these restricted materials is qualified steel. Because, as stated, qualified steel is in our lives everywhere we can think of, from defense to nuclear power plants.
These developed countries also tend to produce flat alloy, stainless, coated and more special steels with higher added value rather than producing tons of iron and steel. Our country also needs to turn to this area as soon as possible. As a result of the studies on this subject, after the law numbered 5746 on supporting research, development and design activities was enacted, the number of R&D centers reached 795 and the number of design centers reached 156.
As the number of companies producing high-quality steel, test laboratories and R&D centers increase, it is expected that our high value-added steel production and advanced technology product production will also increase.
