[f. martensite + temper v.]
trans. To treat (steel) so as to reduce its tendency to crack or distort by quenching rapidly to a temperature just above that at which martensite begins to form, allowing the temperature to equalize throughout, and then cooling slowly. So ˈmartempered ppl. a., ˈmartempering vbl. n.
1943B. F. Shepherd in Iron Age 28 Jan. 50/1 Martempering is a term used to describe a heat treating operation whereby martensite is produced with a minimum of residual hardening strains. 1943― in Metal Progress July 105/2, I have coined the term ‘martempering’ to describe this operation of hardening by cooling quickly. 1947Steel Processing XXXIII. 103/2 Steel was more susceptible to cracking when martempered than when treated by the more conventional method. 1953Aitchison & Pumphrey Engin. Steels iii. 115 The properties of a martempered steel are in no way inferior to those of the same steel quenched and tempered in the traditional manner. Ibid. 116 Martempering is unlikely to supplant the direct quenching of normal, commercial steels. 1956Jrnl. Iron & Steel Inst. CLXXXIII. 447/1 Warpage was least on martempered specimens. 1968E. R. Petty Physical Metall. Engin. Materials xi. 206 Quench stresses and attendant distortion or cracking may be reduced by..an interrupted quench (martempering). |
