In Reply to: isn't the iron in the old ones pure, and the newer ones have a lot of recycled metal posted by Timbo in Oz on February 15, 2012 at 23:39:29:
The transformer laminations are made from grain oriented silicon steel (either M4 or M6). The composition, mechanical handling, and heat treating of the metal are pretty rigorously defined. I don't think it matters if the iron entering the steel making process is "virgin" pig from a blast furnace or scrap, as correct composition is correct composition. It's the old tale of the difference between path functions and state functions.
