Quenching- Tempering Effects On Fracture Properties In Carburized Low Carbon Steel

Quenching and tempering process are two common processes that are used in the industrial. Quenching is the process where the steel is rapidly cooled after carburizing by using quenching medium such as oil while tempering is the process where the steel is heated at certain temperature between 400o...
