Heat treatment can be simply defined as heating, holding, and cooling of materials. The current review paper presents the various types of heat treatment processes done on the different metals and alloys. A comparative analysis of the effect of heat treatment on hard-ness, yield strength, and microstructure, etc. of the various metals and alloys has been presented in this paper. The literature has shown that the heat treatment resulted in the development of new phases along with the improvement of microstructural and mechanical properties of various metals and alloys. The paper also represents the consequence of microwave heat treatment done on various substrates. The final part of the paper discusses the suggested future work that can be done.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
