Effects of quenching and tempering heat treatment on microstructure, mechanical properties, and fatigue crack growth behavior of 51CrV4 spring steel

Herein, the microstructure, mechanical properties, and fatigue crack growth (FCG) behavior of 51CrV4 spring steels under different quenching and tempering heat treatment were studied. Results show that tempering temperature would not affect the prior austenite grain (PAG) size, while quenching tempe...
