Mechanical Property Evolution of Heat Treated Stainless Steel Grade
Abstract
The high work-hardening rate and ductility of austenitic stainless steels in the annealed state allows the application of severe forming operations. Engineering materials, mostly steels are heat treated under controlled sequence of heating and cooling to alter their physical and mechanical properties to meet desired engineering applications. In this study, the effect of heat treatment (annealing, normalizing, hardening, and tempering) on the microstructure and some selected mechanical properties were studied.
