types of heat treatment, difference between normalizing and annealing, what is annealing temp. of 0.028%C?

Question

Accepted Answer

Heat treatment types, difference between normalizing and annealing, and annealing temperature of 0.028%C.

Heat treatment types include annealing, normalizing, quenching, and tempering.
Annealing involves heating the material to a specific temperature and then cooling it slowly to make it softer and more ductile.
Normalizing involves heating the material to a specific temperature and then cooling it in still air to make it stronger and more durable.
Annealing temperature of 0.028%C is around 727°C.
The main difference between annealing and normalizing is the cooling process.
Annealing cools the material slowly, while normalizing cools it quickly in still air.
