Q

What is heat treatment?

Torsai K

A

Heat can be used to alter the properties of a metal. The type of metal, temperature, and rate of cooling will affect final properties.

41
Q

How do atoms exist?

Ivan k

A

In a regular lattice structure

42
Q

what happens when a metal is worked

-IVan

A

Dislocations are formed

43
Q

How can you alter the properties of a metal?

-Ivan k

A

Using heat

44
Q

How hard does steel get when tempered?

-Oscar Lawson

A

It depends on the amount of carbon it contains. It has at least 0.4% carbon but the higher carbon content, the harder it becomes

45
Q

What analogy is used to talk about fractures and stresses in metals?

-Oscar Lawson

A

A paper clip- it can be bent a lot but it eventually breaks

46
Q

How do you anneal aluminium?

-Oscar Lawson

A

Heat it to at least 350 degrees, using soap to gauge the temperature. Afterwards, cool it slowly

47
Q

How do you anneal copper or brass?

-Oscar Lawson

A

Heat it to a dull red colour before cooling it or quenching it

48
Q

What is quenching?

-Oscar Lawson

A

Dipping a hot metal in water to cool it down fairly rapidly.

49
Q

How hard does steel get when tempered?

-Oscar Llama

A

It depends on the amount of carbon it contains. It has at least 0.4% carbon but the higher carbon content, the harder it becomes
