Enforcement and Compliance's Global Steel Trade Monitor provides global import and export trends for the top countries trading in steel mill products.To supplement ITA's core trade statistics in the Steel Import Monitoring and Analysis (SIMA) system, quarterly country reports for the top 20 steel importing and top 20 steel exporting countries will be published.Each country report includes export and import trends by country and aggregate product, production and consumption data, and where available, information about trade remedy actions taken on steel products.

The Steel Import Monitoring and Analysis (SIMA) System, under the Department of Commerce, collects and publishes data of steel mill product imports. By design this information provides stakeholders and public valuable information on steel trade with the United States.

Table of U.S. exports of steel mill products for all steel mill products by quantity in metric tons.

The ‘Import Monitor’ aggregates detailed license information and makes it available for public analysis on a weekly basis. All imported steel products under the U.S. Bureau of the Census (Census) definition of steel mill products are required to have an import license effective June 9, 20051. The data from the licensing system are used in conjunction with similar Census data to put together the ‘Import Monitor’. This Monitor helps alert users to changes in import patterns.

Frequently Asked Questions covering the Steel Import Monitoring system, which includes both the steel import monitoring system and the import monitor

This report describes the test equipment, process, analysis, and data file formats for the Numisheet 2020 tensile and tension/compression testing of the four materials associated with the Numisheet 2020 conference benchmarks. The four materials include two steel alloys, DP980 for Benchmark 1 and DP1180 for Benchmark 2, and two 6000 series aluminum alloys, AA6xxx-T4 for Benchmark 1 and AA6xxx-T81 for Benchmark 2, that will be referred to here as BM1-DP980, BM2-DP1180, BM1-6xxx-T4, and BM2-6xxx-T81, respectively.

This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use as a primary calibration standard for the quantitative determination of barium. A unit of SRM 3104a consists of five 10 mL sealed borosilicate glass ampoules of an acidified aqueous solution prepared gravimetrically to contain a known mass fraction of barium. The solution contains nitric acid at a volume fraction of approximately 1 %, which is equivalent to a concentration (molarity) of approximately 0.16 mol/L. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.

This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use as a primary calibration standard for the quantitative determination of cerium. A unit of SRM 3110 consists of five 10 mL sealed borosilicate glass ampoules of an acidified aqueous solution prepared gravimetrically to contain a known mass fraction of cerium. The solution contains nitric acid at a mass fraction of approximately 16 %. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.

This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use as a primary calibration standard for the quantitative determination of germanium. A unit of SRM 3120a consists of 50 mL of a single element solution in a high density polyethylene bottle sealed in an aluminized bag. The solution was prepared gravimetrically to contain a known mass fraction of germanium. The solution contains nitric acid at a concentration of approximately 1.6 mol/L and hydrofluoric acid at a concentration of approximately 0.6 mol/L. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.

This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use as a primary calibration standard for the quantitative determination of hafnium. A unit of SRM 3122 consists of 50 mL of an acidified aqueous solution prepared gravimetrically to contain a known mass fraction of hafnium in a high density polyethylene bottle sealed in an aluminized bag. The solution contains approximately 8 % nitric acid (volume fraction) and approximately 1 % hydrofluoric acid (volume fraction), equivalent to amount of substance concentrations (molarities) of 1.3 mol/L and 0.3 mol/L, respectively.
