Novel Etching Technique for Delineation of Prior-Austenite Grain Boundaries in Low, Medium and High Carbon Steels
The etching of prior austenite grain boundaries in martensite for detailed quantitative metallography of low to high carbon steel has been carried out using aqueous solutions of picric acid containing different wetting agents. The choice of wetting agent was shown to be dependent on the carbon conte...
