1D

Dislocations (screw,Edge)

44
Q

What are planar defects?

A

Grain boundries, Stacking falts

45
Q

What are bulk defects?

A

Pores, inclusions, cracks

46
Q

Are defects useful?

A

They give a material its mechanical properties
So YEA!
always in materials

47
Q

What is the AISI - SAE system?

A

XYWZ

where X = group of carbon steel
Y = Amount of alloying element
WZ = Carbon concentration (20 = 0.2%)

48
Q

What are these parts of a phase diagram called?

alpha, gamma, Fe3C, Fe3c + alpha

A

In order,

Ferrite, Austenite, Cemetite, Pearlite

49
Q

What are the 2 phase diagram reactions and what are they?

A

Eutectoid ( gamma - alpha +Fe3C)

Eutectic ( Liquid - gamma + Fe3C)

50
Q

at what wt%C is a eutectoid steel?

A

A

Hypoeutectiod, eutectoid, hypereutectoid

52
Q

What are the WT%C of ferrite and cementite?

A

0.02% and 6.7%

53
Q

How do you use the lever rule?

A

if K > Critical toughness then it will fail. (critical toughness determined using critical strength)

Y= material constant.

59
Q

How do you produce matensite?

A

Quenching: heating to above recrystalisation temp and cooled rapidly in water or oil.

It can then be temered to regain ductiity by heating to below recrystalisation temp and cooled slowly at room temp
