IET Test 2 Flashcards
steels that undergo a similar process, but structure will be coarse pearlite with excess cementite.
Hypereutectoid steels
Heating steel to a temperature higher than in annealing (cheaper than annealing) (not as time consuming as annealing)
Normalizing
Recrystallization is induced after a material has been cold worker to reduce strain hardening effects. (Note cast iron is not cooled worked)
Process Annealing
Reduces residual stresses in casting, welded assemblies, and cold formed products. Materials are heated and then slow cooled.
stress relief annealing
(Not iron based) metals do not have significant phase transitions (Not polymorphic)
Nonferrous metals
(Not iron based) metals do not have significant phase transitions (Not polymorphic)
Nonferrous metals
Has a number of different crystal structures.
Polymorphic
Is a subsequent heating method to give the steel necessary ductility and fracture toughness
Tempering
Adding an alloy element is to increase
Harden Ability and Toughness
Eutectoid Steel is about _____ percent carbon
.77%
Base metal dissolves other atoms as__________ solutions
Substitutional or interstitial solutions
Increased strength by plastic deformation is called
Strain Hardening
Metals with stronger grains tend to be stronger is an example of
Grain Size Refinement
Strength that is obtained from a nonequilibrium structure
Precipitation Hardening
Are processes of controlled heating and cooling to purposefully alter a materials structure and properties.
Heat Treatments
Cooling a hot piece of metal rapidly, as in water or oil.
quenching
Is a slow cooling method to insure uniforming properties throughout the process
Annealing
Heated to convert the grain structure to homogenous single-phase Austenite, then control cooled.
Hypoeutectoid Steels
Plastic Deformation increases strength in most metals is caused by
Strain Hardening/Work Hardening
Properties that vary with direction
Anisotropic
When the break occurs before plastic deformation
Brittle Fracture
what happens when a metal is held above its recrystallization temperature is 1/2 (t-melting)
Grain Size Increases
has a definable structure and composition. Can be continuous (gas or liquid) or discontinuous (solid grains/crystal) it can also be a pure substance like after or a solution like salt in water.
Phase
is the solubility limit of the two materials at a given temperature
Saturation Point
