Retained Austenite Measurement

Hardening of steels requires heating to an austenitic phase and quenching to room temperature to produce a hard martensitic phase. Due to incomplete transformation some austenite is retained at room temperature. Retained austenite can have a detrimental affect on the mechanical properties of the steel... (read more)

• Determination of Volume Percent Retained Austenite by X-Ray Diffraction (.pdf)
  Hardening of steels requires heating to an austenitic phase and quenching to room temperature to produce a hard martensitic phase. Austenite is an FCC phase that is stable above a temperature of 735...

• Normalizing
  Normalizing is a common heat treatment for improving the strength and ductility of ferrous alloys. Normalizing anneal decreases pearlite interlamellar spacing and refines grain size. The normalizing...

• Quenching and Tempering
  Quenching and tempering (quenching and drawing) is a conventional process used to harden or strengthen steel or ferrous alloys. In the first step, the ferrous alloy is transformed to austenite and...
