Mechanical properties and microstructures data of AISI 1070 steel quenched in epoxidized transesterified cottonseed oil

The quenching ability of modified and unmodified cottonseed oils was investigated using AISI 1070 steel. In the event of the quenching, the steel samples immersed in each of five distinct quench media, namely epoxidized cottonseed oil (EC), epoxidized-transesterified cottonseed oil (ETC), transester...

Sumario:The quenching ability of modified and unmodified cottonseed oils was investigated using AISI 1070 steel. In the event of the quenching, the steel samples immersed in each of five distinct quench media, namely epoxidized cottonseed oil (EC), epoxidized-transesterified cottonseed oil (ETC), transesterified cottonseed oil (TC) and fresh cottonseed oil (FC). Tests and analysis conducted determined mechanical properties and microstructures of the quenched samples. The data obtained showed that ETC outperformed other quench media with hardness value of the quenched sample; 407 HVN (hardness value from the FC-quenched sample) increased to 746 HVN indicating an 83.29% improvement. Notably, in the microstructure of ETC-quenched sample, a unique homogeneous microstructure containing a mixture of lath and plate martensite observed with largest martensite per cent of 95.
