Abstract
The effects of trace elements on the mechanical properties (Hardness and Impact) of medium carbon steel were investigated in this research. Carbon steel is an alloy with a wide variety of uses, so it's necessary to learn about its physical and mechanical characteristics. The factors like mechanical properties and SEM for two different variations of sulfur and phosphorous [Variation-1 (S%–0.006% and P%–0.013%) and variation-2 (S%–0.017% and P%–0.025%)] were investigated in this research. According to the results, mechanical properties such as hardness and impact increased marginally as the percentage of sulfur and phosphorous varied.
