Method of Heating
Metals such as Duralumin and aluminum are heat treated in a salt bath. This is a mild steel bath containing a mixture of potassium an sodium nitrates, which is heated by gas, oil and electricity.Heat Treatment of Duralumin
Anealing: This operation permits the material to be worked and bent. Duralumin is annealed in a salt bath at a temperature between 360 degrees Celsius and 400 degrees Celsius and then quenched in clean cold water.Normalizing: Duralumin is normalized to relieve stresses and strains set up by working. Duralumin is normalized in a salt bath at a temperature between 485 degrees Celsius, and 505 degrees Celsius an then quenched in clean water.
Note: Normalized Duralumin gradually becomes harder and stronger (age-hardens) during the three or four days after treatment.
Thank you very much for sharing this useful information. I was doing a project and for that I was looking for related information. Some of the points are very useful. Do share some more material if you have.

A very delightful article that you have shared here.Dissolvable Magnesium Alloy Material Your blog is a valuable and engaging article for us, and also I will share it with my companions who need this info. Thankful to you for sharing an article like this.
ReplyDeleteAnnealing is a specific process of heat treatment that alters the properties of metal. While there are many different types of heat treatment, annealing is popular because it increases ductability and reduces hardness. How To Anneal Steel
