FE0336 : Microstructural Characterization & Inclusion Rating of Steels

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. 

 

This course covers the main experimental techniques used for characterizing the microstructure of materials with applications in engineering. Participants will be able to distinguish the relationship between microstructure and properties of engineering materials. 

 

The course explores a systematic approach on the inclusion rating of steels, using the ASTM E45 and E1245 and other NMI standards. 

 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the engineering steels; optical microscopy (OM); scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM); electron backscatter diffraction, energy dispersive x-ray analysis and surface profilometry (SP); sample preparation; non metallic inclusions in steel; microstructural characterization and non metallic inclusions in steel; ASTM E45; and other NMI standards.
