All the enclosures in the low-sulfur steel seem to be of the samekind, whereas, in the acid open-hearth and electric steel with highersulfur, there are two types—the small round ones and those that were. a b Fig. 1.—Acid open-hearth steel, a, Unetched, X25; h, uxetched, X200. elongated and drawn out in forging. The light colored elongatedenclosures in the acid open-hearth steel are probably a mixture of man-ganese sulfide, oxides, and siUcates.
