  • hardening: carburizing : the introduction of carbon into the surface by heating to and holding at a suitable temperature usually above the transformation range in contact with a suitable source of carbon. Carburizing is usually followed by direct quenching or by other suitable heat treatment
    Category: Iron and steel industries

  • hardening: the term hardening used without qualification denotes hardening due to the formation of martensitic constituents
    Category: Iron and steel industries

  • hardening: the process that commences at the end of the initial set and indicates the growth in strength of the mortar or concrete.Under good curing conditions,the strength increases rapidly,and one of the properties of concrete is that it will continue to harden for years.Ordinary Portland cement hardens slowly,but rapidhardening cement hardens quickly and its strength in two or three days is as high as that of the former at seven days
