I pass this heat treatment definition along until I'm corrected or find a more succinct, better one. Heat treatment is the controlled heating and cooling of a metal in order to change its properties. Forging is controlled heating and cooling but is not considered a heat treatment by metallurgists, probably because of the plastic deformation involved.
Yes and no, say Bond and Deomano. Heat treating is typically done to kill insects or insect larvae that may be in the wood. âYes, it will also kill mold, but heat treating is not designed to dry the pallet,â says Bond. The heat treatment process actually brings moisture to the surface of the wood. âThatâs an ideal mold-growing environment if the pallet isnât properly handled,â says Bond. A pallet manufacturer can start a core drying cycle at the end of the heat treatment, but that adds a cost to the pallet that most users are not willing to pay for.
