Heattreatment,hardeningandtempering
Thanks to their specific alloying, boron steels have a variety of metallurgical properties that can be utilised in hardening.
Hardeningisaheattreatmentprocessthatconsistsofheating,holdingandrapidcooling.Thesteelisheatedinorderto
changetheferriticperliticmicrostructuretofullyaustenitic.Holdingtimeshouldbeappropriateforsteelthicknesstoobtain
homogenous temperature. Austenitization temperature for these steels is close to 910 930C. Rapid cooling from
austenitization temperature is called quenching. The purpose of quenching is to obtain a martensitic microstructure.
Hardenedboronsteelsarehard,strongandwearresistantstructuralmaterials.
In certain applications, hardened steel as such is only an intermediate product. The manufacture of such applications
includes further tempering. Hardening and tempering can also be jointly called temper hardening (quenching+tempering),
which is carried out in order to turn the martensitic microstructure into tempered martensite with good tensile strength
properties.Mainpurposeoftemperingistoreleaseheatandstructuralstressesthatappearedduringquenching.Tempering
makes steel slightly softer the degree of softness depends on the tempering temperature, which is the most important
