1.7225 | 42CrMo4 former austenite grain boundaries
| Numeric designation | 1.7225 | 
|---|---|
| Chemical designation | 42CrMo4 | 
| State | former austenite grain boundaries | 
| Etching | Bechet-Beaujard | 
The micrographs show the former austenite grain boundaries etched after Bechet-Beaujard 30 min at 50 °C. After etching, the surface of the sample was polished with OPS for approx. 15-20 sec. Etching time and temperature may vary and depend on composition and heat treatment condition.
