Synopsis

The current project is focused towards evaluation of delta ferrite on the mechanical properties of 17-4 PH stainless steel. Two different heats as mentioned above were taken for comparison purposes, out of those two conditions one heat does contain large stringers of delta ferrite and the other does not contain the same. By performing several mechanical tests it is clearly shows that the presence of delta ferrite results a little effect on the Ultimate tensile strength, impact toughness and hardness of the material, but certainly there is no effect on the Yield properties of the material.
