Effect of heat treatment on the spheroidisation process

When pearlite is subjected to heat treatment for prolong period of time, spheroidization will occurred. Different carbon content and heat treatment time will result in different spheroidization rate and thus having different microstructure. This report investigates and shows how the rate of spheroid...

Description
Summary:When pearlite is subjected to heat treatment for prolong period of time, spheroidization will occurred. Different carbon content and heat treatment time will result in different spheroidization rate and thus having different microstructure. This report investigates and shows how the rate of spheroidization will affect the pearlite inter-lamellar spacing for both hypoectectoid steel and hypereutectoid steel.
