'Quantitative Analysis of Grain Size',York, UK
Metals, except in a few instances, are crystalline in nature. Single crystals put aside, they all contain internal boundaries known as grain boundaries. In the metallographic laboratory, analysing grains' size in metallic and alloy samples such as aluminium or steel is important for quality-control. The manufacturing process and manufacturers indeed relies upon an accurate understanding of the grain size.
This course aims to provide attendees with a method to determine grain size and properly interpret the results, taking into consideration the limitations of the methods involved.For further information, please visit:
