1
Q
Alloy
A
Mixture containing at least 1 metal
2
Q
Work hardening
A
process of toughening a metal through plastic deformation
3
Q
Tempering
A
Heat treatment process to increase toughness and ductility and decrease hardness and brittleness
4
Q
Super alloy
A
Alloy exhibiting excellent mechanical strength, resistance to thermal creep deformation, good surface stability and resistance to corrosion.
5
Q
Creep
A
Tendency of a metal to slowly move/deform permanently due to the long term exposure of stress that are below the yield strength of the metal.
6
Q
Oxidance resistance
A
The ability of a metal to resist the direct and indirect attack of oxygen (oxidation)
7
Q
