Alloys

Alloys are a combin­ation of chemical elements. Usually this is to create a material more suited for a specific need,

Phase Transf­orm­ation

Phase Transf­orm­ation occur during heating and cooling, as well as when holding at high temper­atures in time. Phase transf­orm­ation has a huge impact on the material proper­ties.
