	Indydog, The transformation to martensite is a "nanoscale" transformation in steel. Recent developments in this area include cryogenic quenching. to remove retained austenite martensite. Some research claims a new phase, is developed, but ... http://www.scientific.net/3-908451-36-1/415/ http://www.airproducts.com/NR/rdonlyres/3433A3DC-1899-4093-A094-9964342C38C0/0/33005019GLB.pdf http://www.onecryo.com/manufact.htm I have seen some data on this cryo treatment on brake parts on military vehicles deployed in middle east . extends life by multiples of untreated life. I have used some cryo treated disposable razors, and found they out lasted normal by 3 to 4X . Thats my contribution. milo __________________ "Do right and fear no man, Don't write and fear no woman." Sir Thomas Dewar, inventor of the vacuum flask (Thermos bottle)
