I am interested in how one would go about inducing the phenomena people call "alloy banding"? Say, in a high-carbon steel like 1095, O1 or W1 (would the procedure differ significantly for each of these steels?)
I would think it would be something like:
-Full sphereodize anneal
-Get up to critical (probably on the low side of critical?) and quench immediately (minimal soak time)
Does that sound about right?
Thanks,
Dustin
