Solution heat treatment316 Stainless Steel Socket Threaded Fittings NPT SUS316 elbow

Solution heat treatment and annealing are common methods for heat treatment of non-ferrous metals. In my last article, I looked at the heat treatment process for ferrous metals like steel. Today you will learn about the following heat treatment processes, including solution heat treatment and annealing. You will also learn about precipitation hardening, nitriding, cold working, decarburization.

It is done to increase the tensile strength of non-ferrous alloys, turn them into solid solution, and control the rate of structural change back to their mechanical mixture. In this heat treatment, the alloy is heated to a specific temperature below the material’s melting point and then quenched or rapidly cooled. The solid solution obtained during heating remains stable due to the cooling process. At this point, aging and precipitation hardening (processes that help the material in the alloy change or come out of solid solution) are carried out to ensure that the alloy does not change its original structure over time. Aging gives the final grain structure in the metal greater tensile strength than its original state. Depending on the alloy type.
