Explanation:

  • Heat treatment is an operation involving heating and cooling of a metal or alloy so as to obtain certain desirable properties.
  • A few important heat treatment processes are:
    • Annealing
    • Normalizing
    • Hardening
    • Tempering

Normalizing: 

  • Heat the steel from 30°C to 50°C above its upper critical temp, held about fifteen minutes, and then allowed to cool down in still air.
  • The homogeneous structure provides a higher yield point, ultimate tensile strength and impact strength with lower ductility to steels.
  • Main objective:
    • The mechanical properties of steels are better than those produced by annealing.
    • Residual stresses are relieved only partly
    • Fine grains are formed
    • Strength and hardness is more
    • The machinability will be increased
