Add to ORKGThis bachelor thesis deals with the heat treatment of steel, especially measuring the influence of individual heat treatment technologies on changes in the microstructure of steels. The theoretical part of the work presents alloys of iron and carbon, furthermore describes their phase transformations in the solid state, particularly the transformation diagrams of steels. In another part of theoretical part, the basic heat treatment technologies and their influence on the mechanical properties and microstructure of steels are described. The experimental part deals with the preparation of metallographic samples and presents results of examining the microstructure and measuring the hardness of individual samples. At the end of the work the synt...
