Microscopic steel grain size analysis is useful in determining the quality of steel alloys for a given purpose such as building bridges vs railroad rails. This webinar will describe the preparation of the sample, microscope examination of the sample, and analysis of the sample using international standards.

Key Learnings

In this webinar participants will learn:

Basic preparation steps (polishing and acid-etching)
Microscope examination of samples using different illumination techniques
Manual vs semi-automated analysis using international standards (ASTM, ISO, JIS, GOST)
