Quenching is one of the major processes of heat treatment of medium carbon steel that aims
at improving its mechanical properties. However, the effectiveness of this process is …

The role of biofilm in the Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) of carbon steel by
Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRB) in oil and gas exploitation, and geothermal installations is …

The carbon steel is used in many areas due to its good mechanical properties; however, its
low corrosion resistance presents a very important problem, for example, when carbon steel …

The effects of quenching medium on the impact behaviour of mild steel welded joints were
investigated, single–vee butt welded joint was employed in welding the samples. The …

This study examines microstructural modification as an effective strategy for reducing
corrosion and its impact on the mechanical properties of mild steel. The effect of heat …

Quenching is a swift way of returning metal back to ambient temperature in order to acquire
a certain property. Although it is often used to enhance the hardness of metals and their …

There is an ongoing interest in the development and use of renewable base stocks to
formulate quenchants. The most common criterion of vegetable oils as renewable base …

This work aims at investigating the influence of titanium addition on behavior of medium
carbon steel. Three types of medium carbon steel with different titanium content and one …

The design of a new steel with specific properties is always challenging owing to the
complex interactions of many variables. In this work, this challenge is dealt with by …

Untempered martensitic steels, while very hard are too brittle to be useful for most
applications. Most applications require that quenched part be tempered, so as to impact …
