Description
Summary:This research on effect of carburizing on impact toughness of low carbon steel is done under the Projek Sarjana Muda (PSM) course for Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka. This research is conducted to determine whether increasing surface hardness of steel by carburizing process can increase the impact toughness of the steel. The method of investigation is based on comparison of carburized and uncarburized steel impact toughness test data. The carburizing process that has been carried out is conducted properly and similar for each specimen to prevent uncertainties or error the specimen. This is to make sure that the results are accurate and the effect of carburizing can be determined properly. The impact test that has been conducted shows that uncarburized low carbon steel has the higher impact toughness compared to carburized steel. The result has been discussed properly in chapter 5 to make sure that the result is acceptable. The final conclusion has also been made properly referring to discussion result.
