This study is conducted to analyze the effect on the Hardness and Micro Structural Behaviour of three Sample Grades of Tool Steel i.e. EN-31, EN-8, and D3 after Heat Treatment Processes Such As Annealing, Normalizing, and Hardening and Tempering. The purpose of Selecting Tool Steel is Because Tool Steel is Mostly Used in the Manufacturing Industry.This study is based upon the empirical study which means it is derived from experiment and observation rather than theory.

A set of new nitrogen-containing hot work die steels were designed. The best experimental steels and their heat treatment processes were optimized by microstructures, mechanical properties and thermal fatigue tests. The results show that the best compositions of V, Cr, N are 1.0 wt%, 3.75 wt% and 0.01 wt%, respectively. The optimized heat treatment process is that quenching at 1080°C, first tempering at 550°C and second tempering at 530°C.

To clarify the utilization of flue gas desulphurization (FGD) gypsum as the retarder of cementbased materials,the effect of the properties of the slag cement with different tempemtuIe treatment of FGD gypsum was studied. The results reveal that in the case of adding the same amount, the setting time of cement shortened with the increasing of heat treatment temperature of FGD gypsum. The influence of different heat treatment processes on the strength of cements was not obvious and the strength development was good. The water consumption of normal consistency for cements changed slightly. Stability was qualified.

The actual lethal effect is traditionally determined by calculating the sum of the lethality rates, given in the reference literature. However, to calculate the heat treatment process F-effect for development new sterilization and pasteurization regimes of canned foods, it becomes necessary to vary the parameters of the base temperature and heat resistance characteristic value of the microorganism test culture. To automate the process of computing, the authors developed the software «Heat treatment process lethality calculation» which calculates the lethality rates, the heating lethal effect and the actual lethal effect (F-effect) values of the canned food heat treatment process. In the paper, the software mathematical calculation formula, graphical user interface and functionality are described. The example of pasteurization conditions selection for canned food «Trout in olive oil with the addition of pickled pineapple» in the tin can No. 2, based on the obtained results from the developed software for calculating the actual lethality of the canned food heat treatment processes, is shown.

The ZK60 magnesium alloys add Y were deformed with extrusion simulation system, and extruded products for various heat treatment processes. The mechanism properties of Y element in ZK60 and its effect on microstructure were analyzed. as well as heat treatment process for ZK60 and ZK60 +1.0Y two influence of alloy microstructure and properties were investigated. The results showed that the addition of rare earth Y can effectively refine the grain ZK60 alloy, and can significantly improve the performance of ZK60 alloy plasticity. Artificial aging treatment can improve ZK60 and ZK60 +1.0Y alloy yield strength and ductility, the best artificial aging treatment ZK60 and ZK60 +1.0Y alloy extrusion products for the 180°C×24h.

Generally, metals are easy to wear, so material modification is needed to increase hardness to increase the material's resistance to wear and tear. One way is to do a hard chrome plating process using the electroplating method and then continue the heat treatment process. This research was conducted to observe changes in the mechanical properties and microstructure of S45C steel that underwent hard chrome and heat treatment processes. This research was conducted by inserting S45C steel as a cathode into hard chrome liquid and using lead (Pb) as the anode. A positive (+) current powers the anode, the cathode has a negative current (-), the voltage used is 12 V with a duration of 60 minutes. After the cathode was coated with hard chrome, a hardness test was carried out, then continued with the heat treatment process using a temperature of 850°C for 30 minutes. The hardness test results show an increase in the hardness of S45C steel that has been coated with hard chrome, with a hardness value of S45C steel 202.70 VHN, S45C hard chrome steel 998.63 VHN. The highest hardness value is S45C steel coated with hard chrome 998.63 VHN, increasing 392.7%. Then the heat treatment process experienced a decrease in the hardness value, 528.90 VHN, with a percentage of 88.81%. The results of the microstructure observation showed that the hard chrome layer that had been heated treated showed even cracks in the hard chrome layer.

Electrolytic plasma heat treatment is becoming a popular heat treatment process in the field of surface engineering. In this paper, research data from different research works have been analyzed. The basic mechanism of the electrolytic plasma heat treatment process is discussed along with its scope in the industry. The review is done to extend the research work of this novel process and its scope from the industrial point of view. The study will explore the electrolytic plasma process to target industrial benefits and to attract the researchers for improving the various aspects of the process. Different types of electrolytic plasma treatment have been discussed to show the capabilities of the process for improving surface properties of different metals. It is found that the treatment is less time consuming, economical, eco-friendly, and dynamic as compared to the existing heat treatment processes. Its dynamic ability makes it possible to perform carburizing, nitriding, coating, cleaning, polishing, and hardening operations in the same experimental setup with little modification.

Tons of numerical simulation results are obtained by numerical simulation of casting and heat treatment process. However, these results are not utilized sufficiently, most are wasted. The aim, to predict defects of castings, such as shrinkage, hot tearing, deformation and etc, need further processing of the simulated results. Therefore, the criteria should be established on the processing of the directly simulated results. What kind of more results can be acquired from these calculated data? This is an interesting question. In this paper, schematic analysis is carried out for further processing of results, result mining (RM) is proposed and its meaning is explained. Meanwhile, some case studies are presented.
