Heat treating is a group of industrial, thermal and metalworking processes used to alter the physical, and sometimes chemical, properties of a material. The most common application is metallurgical.
It’s no secret the world is transitioning from using internal combustion engines (ICE) to electric vehicles (EV) in various forms of transportation. There is a push to replace power generation by fossil fuels with the use of renewable sources to make electricity. High demand for battery materials exists to be used for Li-ion, LFP, NMC, …
Heat-treating is using rapid heating and cooling to alter the physical or chemical properties of metal or other substances. This is usually done to improve the metal’s hardness, strength, or ductility, but heat-treating can also be used to remove residual stress and increase wear resistance. Processes that rely on heat treatment include brazing, tempering, annealing, case hardening, normalizing and sintering.
Molded pulp (molded fiber) is a versatile multi-tasker in the world of packaging materials. Manufacturers across industries use it to protect many types of products.
