Abstract

The effects of temperature and time variances on nano-additives treatment of mild steel during machining was presented in this study. Mild steel of 150kg mass containing 0.56%carbon was charged into the furnace at melting and pouring temperature of 1539 and 1545 °C respectively. Also charged into the furnace withthe mild steel were 0.05% max phosphorous and a bit of sulphur. Thereafter, the sample was cooled and anneale data temperature of 900 °C for 9handthen cooledto300 °C of hardening,normalizing and tempering respectively. The treated samples were then soaked with pulverized in palm kernel shell and barium carbonate (20%) energize rat respective temperatures(800,850,900 and 950 °C) and time variances(60,90and120min)in amuffle furnace. The developed tool waste stedonala the machine to evaluate its performance. The surface and core hardness,wear resistance band toughness were carried out using the hardness tester, Roto-pol–V and impact tester respectively. This is essential for predicting the useful life of the tool in service.
