    The document discusses various heat treatment processes including annealing, normalizing, hardening/quenching, tempering, solution treatment, and spheroidizing. Annealing and normalizing involve heating metals to 880-920°C then slow or air cooling to increase ductility and decrease hardness with different grain sizes. Hardening and quenching uses water or oil cooling after heating to maximize strength and hardness but reduce toughness. Tempering is done after quenching at 500-700°C to increase toughness while maintaining strength.

    heat treatment

    ANNEALING NORMALISING

    - more ductility and softness - more ductility and softness


    - less hardness - less hardness
    - slow cooling in furnace. - Cool in air
    - Large Grain Coarse - small Grain Fine
    - Temperature: 880-920 C - Temperature: 880-920 C

    HARDENING / QUENCHING TEMPERING (After quenching)

    - Optimize strength and - Increase toughness, some


    hardness ductility
    - Low toughness, zero - small Grain Fine
    ductility - cooling by water or oil.
    - small Grain Fine - Temperature: 500-700 C
    - Temperature: 880-920 C

    SOLUTION TREATMENT Spheroidizing

    - (Only in Austenitic stainless - more ductility and softness


    steel such as 304 and 316 - less hardness
    grades) - Temperature: 500-700 C
    - cooling by water or oil.
    - Temperature: above 1000 C
    - Prevent weld decay
