Key Benefits of Cryogenic Treatment
- Increased Hardness: Cryogenic treatment transforms retained austenite into martensite, increasing the hardness of the material.
- Improved Wear Resistance: The process enhances the wear resistance of metals, making them more durable.
- Reduced Residual Stresses: Cryogenic treatment relieves internal stresses, improving the overall stability and performance of the material.
- Enhanced Corrosion Resistance: The precipitation of micro-fine eta carbides during cryogenic treatment improves the corrosion resistance of certain alloys.
- Better Electrical Conductivity: For metals like copper, cryogenic treatment
