Checking our incoming raw-material quality often involves rating nonmetallic inclusions, particularly when heat treating to high hardnesses.

Powder metallurgy is a continually evolving technology utilizing advanced compaction techniques and new alloy systems to optimize mechanical performance of the resulting powder-metallurgy (PM) part.

The most common tint etchants are those that deposit a sulfide-based interference film on the specimen.

Many metals etched with standard reagents to reveal the grain boundaries often yield only a high percentage of the boundaries rather than all of them.
