Widmanstatten structure in steel lowers hardness but they have some applications too. Find out microstructural development and ways to eliminate it.
Steel
We are covering range of steel types from W1 steel to Spring steels, giving users information about there working conditions, heat treatment and much more.
Engineering steel is a widely used material throughout the history of Men. Topic covered will be;
Steel Production
Heat treatment
Defects in heat treatment
Inspection and Testing
Characterization of Steel
Martensitic Transformation – Austenitizing temperature effect
Martensitic transformation happens when carbon steel, after heating above A1 line, cools drastically with cooling rate higher than critical cooling rate.
