Author(s): Patricia Jovičević Klug (Author), Bojan Podgornik (Supervisor)

Year: 2022

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Deep cryogenic treatment (DCT) is a type of cryogenic treatment, during which a material is subjected to temperatures below −160 °C. When a metallic material is modified with DCT, changes occur down to the nanoscopic level. DCT induces microstructural changes such as grain size refinement, formation of new grains, movement …
