Answer:

a) converting Martensite to spheroidite

The heat treatment procedure for converting Martensite to spheroidite  involves heating Martensite of  0.76 wt% C steel for approximately 24 hours at a temperature of 700°C

b) Converting Spheroidite to martensite

The heat treatment entails heating Spheroidite of 0.76 wt% C steel to a temperature of 760°C  to austenization then it will  be quenched at temperature > 140°C

c) Converting Bainite to Pearlite

The heat treatment involves  heating Bainite of 0.76 wt% C steel to a temperature of 720°C  until austenization then it will  be quenched at temperature < 35°C

d) Converting Pearlite to Bainite

The heat treatment involves heating Pearlite of  0.76 wt% C steel to a temperature of 720°C until austenization then it will  be cooled at a temperature range 220°C to 540°C. the temperature is maintained at this range until the complete formation of Bainite

e) Converting Spheroidite to perlite

The heat treatment involves  heating Spheroidite of 0.76 wt% C steel to a temperature of 720°C  until austenization then it will  be quenched at temperature < 35°C

f) Perlite to Spheroidite

The heat treatment procedure for converting Perlite to spheroidite  involves heating Perlite of  0.76 wt% C steel for approximately 24 hours at a temperature of 700°C

g) Tempered martensite to martensite

The heat treatment entails heating Tempered martensite   of 0.76 wt% C steel to a temperature of 760°C  until austenization then it will  be quenched at temperature > 140°C

h) Bainite to spheroidite

The heat treatment procedure for converting Perlite to spheroidite  involves heating Bainite of  0.76 wt% C steel for approximately 24 hours at a temperature of 700°C

Explanation:

The heat treatment procedure is simply the heating of a metal to a high temperature  and cooling the metal back. during this process the metal will undergo certain mechanical changes
