The organisation of the city appears to have differed from that of other Maya sites and appears to have been geared towards a specialised coastal trade in salt.
Steel is a solid solution, a subtype of chemical mixtures that involve two or more molecules in a solid state that combine to form a single substance while retaining their individual identities. The component metals making up steel are not chemically bonded together. Continue Reading.
Steel is essentially an alloy of iron and carbon; other steel alloys have other metal elements in solution. Heating the material above the critical temperature causes carbon and the other elements to go into solid solution.Quenching freezes the microstructure, inducing stresses.etal Tempering. Tempering is done to develop the required combination of hardness, strength and toughness or to relieve the brittleness of fully hardened steels. Steels are never used in the as quenched condition. The combination of quenching and tempering is important to make tough parts.
