Amongnumerouspropertiespossessedbymaterials,theirmechanicalproperties,inthemajorityofcases,arethemostessentialandtherefore,theywillbegivenmuchconsiderationinthebook.Allcriticalpartsandelements,ofwhichahighreliabilityisrequired,aremadeofmetals,ratherthanofglass,plasticsorstone.AshasbeengiveninSec1-l,metalsarecharacterizedbythemetallicbond;wherepositiveionsoccupythesitesofthecrystallatticeandaresurroundedbyelectrongas.Allnon-metalshaveanionicoracovalentbond.Thesetypesofbondarerigidandareduetoelectrostaticattractionoftwoionsofunlikecharges.Becauseofthemetallicbond,metalsarecapableofplasticdeformationandself-strengtheninguponplasticdeformation.Therefore,ifthereisadefectinamaterialoriftheshapeofanelementissuchthattherearestressconcentrators,thestressesinthesepointsmayattainagreatvalueandevencausecracking.Butsincetheplasticityofthematerialishigh,themetalisdeformedplasticallyinthatpoint,say,atthetipofacrack,undergoesstrengthening,andtheprocessoffracturecomestoanarrest.Thisdoesnotoccurinnon-metals.Theyareuncapableofplasticdeformationandself-strengthening;therefore,fracturewilloccurassoonasthestressesatthetipofadefectexceedadefinitevalue.Thesefactsexplainwhymetalsarereliablestructuralmaterialsandcannotbeexcelledbynon-metallicmaterials.

Therefore,themainfactorsactinginheattreatmentaretemperatureandtime,sothatanyprocessofheattreatmentcanberepresentedintemperature-time(t-τ)coordinates.
Heattreatmentconditionsarecharacterizedbythefollowingparameters:

2.1.2FormationofAustenite
ThetransformationofpearliteintoaustenitecanonlytakeplaceattheequilibriumcriticalpointonaveryslowheatingasfollowsfromtheFe-Cconstitutionaldiagram.Undercommonconditions,thetransformationisretardedandresultsinoverheating,i.e.occursattemperaturesslightlyhigherthanthoseindicatedintheFe-Cdiagram.
Whenoverheatedabovethecriticalpoint,pearlitetransformsintoaustenite,therateoftransformationbeingdependentonthedegreeofoverheating.
Thetimeoftransformationatvarioustemperatures(dependingonthedegreeofoverheating)showsthatthetransformationtakesplacefaster(inashortertime)atahighertemperatureandoccursatahighertemperatureonaquickerheating.Forinstance,onquickheatingandholdingat780℃,thepearlitetoaustenitetransformationiscompletedin2minutesandonholdingat740℃,in8minutes.
Theendofthetransformationischaracterizedbytheformationofausteniteandthedisappearanceofpearlite(ferrite+cementite).Thisausteniteishoweverinhomogeneouseveninthevolumeofasinglegrain.Inplacesearlieroccupiedbylamellae(orgrains)ofapearliticcementite,thecontentofcarbonisgreaterthaninplacesofferriticlamellae.Thisiswhytheaustenitejustformedisinhomogeneous.
