4. Hardening treatments
The primary objective (mainly to increase mass at the same strength) is to improve mechanical properties. This is where heat treatment comes into its own, especially when applied to an alloy rich in β-phase stabilizing elements (§ 2.3.1 ).
Typically, these involve heating, followed by quenching and tempering (table 3...
