Comparative Analysis of Neem and Lubricating (85W90) Oils as quenchants on the Mechanical Properties of Shield Metal Arc welded Duplex Stainless Steel [ READ ]
T. K. Ibrahim, I.U. Leva, I. Iliyasu and D.S. Yawas
The study has compared the effects of neem and lubricating (85w90) oils as quenchants on some mechanical properties of shield metal arc welded duplex stainless steel. The results of the studies show that quenching in neem and lubricating (85w90) oils improved some mechanical properties of the alloy after welding like toughness and ductility. The research also shows that the stress relief heat treatment gives better strength compared to those that were quenched in lubricating oil (85W90) and neem oil but the reverse is the case in terms of toughness and ductility. Finally the results indicated that quenching in lubricating oil gives better mechanical properties compare to the neem oil.
