Metallographic Analysis is a technique used to study the structure and properties of metals and alloys. This process involves preparing a sample by cutting, mounting, grinding, and polishing it to create a smooth surface. Once prepared, the sample is examined under a microscope to reveal its microstructure, including grain size, phase distribution, and any defects. This analysis is essential in materials science and engineering, as it helps in understanding how the microstructure affects the mechanical properties of materials. By analyzing the microstructure, researchers can improve the performance and durability of metals used in various applications, such as aerospace, automotive, and construction.
