Abstract

In view of the rapid technological development taking place around the globe, advanced materials processing comes into
sharp focus. Heat treatment in vaccum offers a plausible alternative over conventional heat treatment process as the
former allows to heat treat finished parts and components with minimum surface degradation. The paper reviews
various vacuum heat treating processes and their advantages over the conventional processes with specific reference to
nuclear, missile and aerospace materials.
