Book excerpt: "The Columbus Laboratories, Battelle Memorial Institute, originally prepared these reports in 1965 and later revised them, updating the information to include the latest technology through 1968. This report is one of a series pertaining to the fabricating of nickel, nickel-base, and cobalt-base alloys. This report deals with heat treating and working nickel and nickel-base alloys, and with the effects of these operations on the mechanical properties of the materials. The subjects covered are annealing, solution treating, stress relieving, stress equalizing, age hardening, hot working, cold working, combinations of working and heat treating (often referred to as thermomechanical treating), and properties of the materials at various temperatures. The equipment and procedures used in working the materials are discussed, along with the common problems that may be encountered and the precautions and corrective measures that are available."--Foreword.
