Embodiment Construction

[0030] According to the present invention, a new method of metal treatment is disclosed which results in the transformation of low-grade iron-based alloys into high-strength steels by extremely rapid heating of the metal followed by immediate rapid quenching of the material. The resulting steel is a heterogeneous composition of at least martensite, bainite, ferrite and other structures discussed in more detail below.

[0031] In this regard, our experiments show that rapid austenitization followed by rapid quenching has demonstrated the formation of a dual hardness microstructure, as illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Experiments have shown that rapid processing of materials with the designation AISI 4130 results in multiple hardness peaks around 525 and 625 Vickers hardness. The combination of hardness has been confirmed by single sensor differential thermal analysis, which shows a transition between the two temperature ranges during a single quenching operation. In A...
