Metallographic Analysis: Microstructure and Quality Control

Metallographic analysis is a fundamental technique used to study the microstructure of metals and alloys. By observing a specially prepared sample under a microscope, it is possible to assess:

  • material quality
  • internal defects
  • heat treatments
  • phase distribution
  • grain size
  • causes of fracture

It is...
