Austempering

Quenching a ferrous alloy from a temperature above the transformation range, in a medium with a rate of heat abstraction high enough to prevent the formation of high-temperature transformation products. One then holds the alloy, until transformation is complete, at a temperature below that of pearlite formation and above that of all martensite formation.
