What is case hardening?
Case hardening or surface hardening is the process of hardening the surface of a metal, often a low carbon steel, by infusing elements into the material's surface, forming a thin layer of a harder alloy.
Does hardening of steel make it ductile or brittle?
more brittle

Martensite

What are didadvantages of titanium?
Titanium is relatively expensive, work hardening, and softer then steel.
What is the full form of OHNS?
oil hardening non shrinkable stainless steel
Why does hardened steel rust faster?
Hardened steel can rust faster than regular steel because the hardening process can disrupt the steel's natural corrosion resistance. This can lead to increased vulnerability to rust and other forms of deterioration. Hardened steel may also have more exposed surface area due to the hardening process, which can make it more prone to rusting.
Is the steel strain hardening exponent temperature dependent?
yes, with increased temp, the s.h.e decreaseshiAccording to your answer . I must say that as I know , when we anneald metals ( e.g. Iron ) the S.H.E increased while you can decreas it by cold-work .
Is Surface hardening better method to use or Annealing when these methods are used to manufacture products from ferrous metals?
These are two different methods that are opposites. Surface hardening is used to stiffen a steel. Usually a steel is heated, a catalyst is applied to the surface and then the steel is quenched in an oil bath or waterbath, this hardens the surface of the steel. Annealing on the other hand, the steel is heated and then allowed to cool slowly. This softens the steel and allows it to be drawn or hammered to form a different shape.
What is the chemical composition of metal en-45?
en 45 is a silicon mangenese spring steel, supplied in the as rolled contition. This steel is suitable for oil hardening and tempering.
How do you increase hardness of mild steel?
You heat your object until its hot red and then you cool it quickly in water
