Abstract

Conventional quenching media such as water and oil do not always provide the requisite quality of articles after heat treatment. In addition, their use often leads to violation of requirements imposed on the safety of labor and the ecology. The present article concerns the possibility of using a pseudo-liquefied (boiling) layer of a fine-grain material as a cooling medium in martempering, austempering, and single heat treatment under the conditions of a machine-building enterprise
