Whentheterm“annealing”isappliedtoferrousalloyswithoutqualification,fullannealingisapplied.Thisisachievedbyheatingabovethealloy’stransformationtemperature,thenapplyingacoolingcyclewhichprovidesmaximumsoftness.Thiscyclemayvarywidely,dependingoncompositionandcharacteristicsofthespecificalloy.

Tempering.Inheattreatingofferrousalloys,temperingconsistsofreheatingtheaustenitizedandquench-hardenedsteelorirontosomepreselectedtemperaturethatisbelowthelowertransformationtemperature(generallybelow1300℃or705℃).Temperingoffersameansofobtainingvariouscombinationsofmechanicalproperties.Temperingtemperaturesusedforhardenedsteelsareoftennohigherthan300℃(150℃).Theterm“tempering”shouldnotbeconfusedwitheitherprocessannealingorstressrelieving.Eventhoughtimeandtemperaturecyclesforthethreeprocessesmaybethesame,theconditionsofthematerialsbeingprocessedandtheobjectivesmaybedifferent.
Stressrelieving.Liketempering,stressrelievingisalwaysdonebyheatingtosometemperaturebelowthelowertransformationtemperatureforsteelsandirons.Fornonferrousmetals,thetemperaturemayvaryfromslightlyaboveroomtemperaturetoseveralhundreddegrees,dependingonthealloyandtheamountofstressreliefthatisdesired.
