The role of tool and die steel alloying elements:18

RE (Xt): rare earth element refers to the Periodic Table of atomic number 57-71 15 lanthanides. These elements are metal, but their oxides are like "earth", so called rare earths is customary. Steel adding rare earth, can change the composition of inclusions in steel, morphology, distribution, and nature, thereby improving the various properties of steel, such as toughness, weldability, cold workability. Plowshare adding rare earth in steel can improve the wear resistance.
