The global retail industry has weathered numerous storms, with the financial crisis of 2008 serving as a poignant reminder of the sector's resilience and adaptability. However, as we navigate the complex landscape of 2024, retailers face a unique set of challenges that demand innovative strategies and a fundamental shift in mindset. This white paper contrasts the impact of the 2008 recession on the retail sector with the current headwinds retailers are grappling with, while offering a comprehensive roadmap for success in this new paradigm.
Best practices for project execution and deliveryCLIVE MINCHIN
A select set of project management best practices to keep your project on-track, on-cost and aligned to scope. Many firms have don't have the necessary skills, diligence, methods and oversight of their projects; this leads to slippage, higher costs and longer timeframes. Often firms have a history of projects that simply failed to move the needle. These best practices will help your firm avoid these pitfalls but they require fortitude to apply.

Figure 1 below shows that using quench oils within the recommended working temperature range ensures optimum viscosity for
minimaldragoutandlowproductconsumption.
Flash-point is, however, especially important since it limits the application temperature range of an oil. Typically the upper
temperaturelimitshouldbeapproximately60°Cbelowtheoil’sflashpoint.
Specific gravity of a pure mineral oil can give an indication of its origin. However, it can be significantly modified by additives and

Thequenchingprocess
A quenchant is characterized primarily by its quenching properties and these are difficult to describe in words. Descriptions
such as “severe” or “mild” are of little use in technological era. The quenching process can however be studied using test
probessuchas:
– nickelandnickelalloyprobes:cylinders12,5mmØ(ISO9950)oraball(GM-test)
– steelprobes,3-80mmØ(Meinhardt-method)
– asilverball,20mmØ(MPI-silverballmethod)
– silvercylinders8or16mm(CetimmethodAFNORNFT60178)
Usually the cooling effect of a quenchant is shown by charting temperature vs time or rate of cooling vs time. Figure 2 shows the
relationship between these two methods. For all quenchants whose boiling range is below the component temperature there are
3 phases in the cooling process as shown in Figure 3 on the following page. Their importance in the quenching process is
describedinthefollowingpages:

1.3.1
Vapourblanketphase:
A vapour “blanket” is formed on the component immediately after immersion in the quenchant. This vapour layer acts as an insulator
becauseofitslowthermalconductivityandthereforethecoolingrateinthisphaseislow.
The duration of this phase depends essentially upon the quenchants composition. Our accelerated quenching oils have a very short vapour
blanketphaseand,inthisrespect,aresuperior tomostotherquenching oils.
A short vapour blanket phase is not only necessary to avoid undesirable pretransformation microstructures, but it also ensures a steady
loweringoftemperatureonthetotalsurfaceofthecomponent,thusminimizing thermalstressanddistortions.

Boiling Phase
After a period of time, depending upon the quenchant and component geometry, the vapour blanket starts to break down and
theboilingphasebegins.
Heat is conducted away at an increasing rate by evaporation of the quenchant at the component’s surface. The rate of cooling reaches
itsmaximum,andasthesurfacetemperaturefalls,boilingbecomesweakerandfinallyceases.

Convectionphase
In the last phase of cooling, heat is conducted away only by convection. Consequently cooling in this phase can be
significantlyaffectedbycirculationofthequenchant.
Ahigh degreeofcoolingintheconvectionphasewillresultindeeperhardening ofthecomponent.
ForevaluationofthecoolingcurvesshowninFigure 2(page7),thefollowingpointsarethereforeimportant:
– durationofthevapourblanketphase
– temperaturerangeoftheboilingphase
– thecoolingrateduring theconvectionphaseandthetemperatureatwhichitbegins.
The maximum cooling rate cannot be used to compare quenchants as it only shows the steepest slope of the
temperature/time curve,andnotthepositionofthecurveinrelationtotheTTTdiagram.
The TTT diagram in Figure 4 shows that the duration of the vapour blanket phase is of considerable importance in the
selection of a quenchant. A short vapour blanket phase is necessary when quenching low alloy or plain carbon steels as only
a few seconds (or, in extreme cases, fractions of a second) are available for the temperature to fall below the critical
temperature range of approx. 600-500°C. If this requirement is not met, undesirable soft structures such as bainite, pearlite,
troostiteandpossiblyferriteoccur.
For the hardening of alloy steels, where the TTT curve lies further to the right, the duration of the vapour phase is less critical,
but the comments made in section 1.3.1 regarding uniform cooling of the surface to reduce thermal stress and distortion,
shouldbeconsidered.

Theeffectofbathtemperatureonthequenchingprocess
Quenching oils do not, for all practical purpose, change their cooling characteristics when their bath temperature remains within
therecommendedworkingrange.
Only extremely low or greatly elevated temperatures lead to lengthening of the vapour phase, and thus a change in the
performanceoftheoil.
However, aqueous quenchants are affected considerably more by bath temperature. This is caused by the much smaller
difference between the working temperature range and the boiling range of aqueous solutions in comparison with oils (water
boils at about 100°C, whereas oils boil from about 300°C upward). Consequently, when aqueous media are being used, bath
temperatures must be kept constant within relatively narrow limits. Figure 5 shows the influence of bath temperature on the
quenching performanceofseveralfluids.

Ageing resistance, service life and consumption
Resistance to evaporation has a considerable effect on consumption and thus on oil bath economics. Experience has
shown that, on batch quenching, probably more oil is lost through evaporation than through “drag-out” by the
components.
Ageing resistance is, however, of the greatest importance in determining the economics of any oil bath. Oils having
poor oxidation resistance will form a sludge, after a short period in use, and this normally results in deposits on the
cooler,thecoldestplaceinthequenching bath.
Ultimately, discoloration appears on the surface of the treated components which is either difficult, or impossible, to
remove. Atthisstagereplacementoftheoilsisunavoidable.
During the development of our quenching oils we have placed great emphasis on their resistance to oxidation (ageing)
byusinghighlystablebaseoilsand,inmanycases,sophisticatedproprietaryadditivepackages.
Several important points need to be observed, when using an oil bath, in order to achieve the optimum operating
conditions.

of oil sludge

Quenching oil with good ageing resistance after an oxidation ageing test.
In order to keep the thermal loading within limits,
and also to avoid severe variations in the
working temperature of the bath, a relationship
between the weight of the batch (or hourly
throughput of the furnace) and the volume of
quenchant mustbemaintained.
This relationship depends upon the conditions
of use of the oil and upon the size of the
components. Larger components which take
longer to cool cause a lower thermal loading to
the oil bath than tightly packed batches of small
componentswhichgiveofftheirheatrapidly.
Consequently the following values can be used
as a guide to the relationship between the weight
of quenching oil and the gross weight of the
batchtobequenched.
– openoilbaths:10:1
– sealedfurnaces:10:1to7:1
– hot quenching oils used at their highest
temperatures10:1to15:1
These values can also be used where quenching
of small batches at short intervals takes place
and the hourly throughput of steel is then used in
thecalculation.
The following points must be observed, in
particularwhenoperatingopenhotoilbaths:
- the cooling and the heating elements should
not be made of copper as this acts as a
catalyst in the oxidation of all mineral oil
product.
- the level of agitation in the system must not
be excessive such that air is drawn into the
oil. This condition will result in foaming and
increasedoxidationoftheoil.
- the heating area loading of the heating
2
elements should be limited to about 1 W/cm .
If a higher loading is used, good movement of
oil in the area of the elements must be
maintained toavoidoverheating.
The life of water-miscible quenchants is
usually limited by several factors. In the case
of surface hardening operations the solution
often has to be replaced because of the
effects of contamination from previous
processes.
The thermal loading can also take its toll in the
long term. In view of this, and the need to
control the concentration of solution,
monitoring isrequiredfortheseproducts.

Maintenanceandmonitoring
Aqueous quenchants must be carefully monitored with respect to both the operating temperature and the concentration of the
solution.Relevantinstructionshavetobecarefullyfollowedtoensuresuccessfulresult.
Under normal operating conditions quenching oils do not require regular monitoring. Attention should, however, be paid to
ensuring the working temperature of the oil is maintained and that the temperature never exceeds one which is at least 60°C below
theoil’sflashpointbeforequenching abatch.Theoilshouldalsoberegularlycheckedforwatercontamination .
We recommend checking oil baths at least annually and water-miscible quenchants at shorter intervals depending upon the
operatingconditions.

Cleaningheat-treatedcomponents
When water – miscible quenchants are used, post cleaning of the heat-treated components is often
unnecessary, even before tempering. However, when high concentrations are being used, rinsing of
thecomponentsisrecommended.
HARDCASTLE PETROFER’s quenching oils will produce hardened components with a bright finish,
providing of course there was no prior surface oxidation. The components are suitable for further
treatment, such as electroplating, without problems. Oil residues do not burn into the surface of the
metalandthereforecanbeeasilyremoved.
Removal of quenching oil generally requires the use of hot aqueous cleaners, or use of water
washablequenching oil.Degreasingwithsolventsinasoaktankorinvapourisalsopossible.
The hot cleaner chosen should be formulated to provide rapid release of the quenching oil so that it
canbeeasilyremovedfromthewashtank.
HARDCASTLE PETROFER has developed “HICLEAN” for this purpose, thus enabling wash water to
be used for longer periods with savings in disposal costs. For removal of separated oil the use of
weirsystemsoroilskimmersisrecommended.
Even emulsions from water washable quenching oils are destabilized when small quantities of
HICLEAN(0.5–2%)areaddedtothewashingwater.
Centrifuges also enable very good oil separation from the wash and can be used for both
conventionalandwaterwashablequenching oils.

16. 33. Water-miscible Quenching Media
3.1
Polymer Quenchants
As has been shown, quenching oils cover a wide range of cooling performance, yet there is still a significant gap between the
maximumachievablecoolingrateofalowviscosityacceleratedoilandthatachievablewithordinarycoldwater.
Water-miscible quenchant which fill this gap are thus an ideal complement to the quenching oil range. Heat-treatment operation
can be carried out with these water-based quenchants which would either be impossible or extremely difficult with an oil. This
particularly relates to spray-quenching in induction and flame-hardening processes, where a high degree of fire risk exists when
usinganoil.
Emulsions have historically been employed in these applications instead of oil, but unfortunately they do not give the low cooling
rates in the temperature range for martensite transformation necessary to reduce, or eliminate, the danger of cracking. These
coolingcharacteristicscanonlybeachievedwithpolymerquenchants.
As a result of our continuous development programmes, we are today able to offer users a complete range of water miscible
quenchantswhichsuccessfullycoversthewholespectrumfromoil-to-waterquenching.
Accelerated quenching oils can already be replaced in a wide range of applications as polymer solutions are available which give
comparable cooling characteristics. These solutions are therefore suitable for hardening alloyed quench and tempering steels
andsometoolsteels,aswellasforquenching componentsdirectlyfromforging.
Water miscible quenching media are today used to a high extent as a substitute fro quenching oils. It must be realised that these
products contain from 60 to 98% of water in the ready-to-use condition, the level depending on the concentration to be used for a
givenapplication.
Due to high water content in polymer quenchant solutions the cooling rates in the boiling phase are usually higher than the rates in
quenching oils.

17. All water-miscible quenchants are of course incombustible, and, in contrast to oil quenching, helps avoiding the risk from fume and
fire. This is particularly useful when hardening forged parts directly from forging temperature and for interrupted quenching (time
quenching) ofcomponents.
Our range of water-miscible quenchants is distinguished by high thermal stability. The products are low foaming, provide excellent
corrosionprotectionandarenotsusceptibletoattackbymicro-organisms.
The use of water-miscible products can often be a new venture for customers and therefore it is advisable to discuss applications
thoroughly. This is obviously not so important with induction and flame-hardening operations where the use of water-miscible
quenchantshasbeenestablishedformanyyears.

InverseSolubility TypePolymerQuenchants
Inverse Solubility Polymers exhibit inverse solubility in water i.e. they are soluble in water at room
O O
temperature, but insoluble above the inverse solubility temperature (normally 65 C -70 C) These
polymer solutions reduce the quenching effect of water by virtue of the polymer in solution becoming
insoluble at the inverse solubility temperature during the quenching process and plating out onto the
hot surface of the component. The thickness of the insulating film formed varies with the
concentrationofthepolymerintheoriginalsolution.
When the component cools to below the inverse solubility temperature of the polymer solution, the
film starts to re dissolve completely, thus ensuring the drag out of the polymer to remain low. Hence
thesepolymerquenching solutionsareveryeconomicalinuse.
Inverse Solubility Polymer Quenchants are used in quenching baths mainly for hardening low alloy,
quench and tempering steels which are difficult to harden with quenching oil, but which are prone to
crackingwithwaterquenching. Theycanalsobeusedforinduction andflamehardening processes.
InverseSolubilityPolymerQuenchantscanbeusedforawiderangeofapplications:
– quenching of forgings of low alloy and plain carbon steels for automobiles e.g. crankshafts,
connecting rods,camshafts,etc
– quenching ofsteelcastings
– quenching ofbars§ionsoflowalloyandcarbonsteels
– hardening ofhandtools,spanners,wrenches,tongs
– hardening ofhigh pressurecylinders&seamlesstubes
– hardening of carburised or carbo -nitrided small parts in continuous furnaces (chain & bicycle
components)
– induction hardening of crankshafts, camshafts, gears, splines on shafts, slewing rings, axle
shafts,velocityjoints,etc

Up-Concentration Type Polymer Quenchants
The New Generation Up-concentration type Polymer Quenchants provide an even more significant
reduction (compared to Inverse Solubility Polymer Quenchants) in quenching speed when added to
water at various proportions. Concentrations of 8-20% give cooling curves practically equal to
thoseofquenching oils.
Reduction of the quenching rate, compared to that of water, is achieved by the formation of a
polymer film on the part’s surface during cooling. In the beginning of the cooling process a thin
polymerfilmensuresuniformcollapseofthevapourblanketandthestartoftheboilingphase.
With further cooling, an insulating film develops and the thickness of the film varies with
concentration. Its insulating effect ensures a controlled heat flow from the component into the
quenchant.
These Polymer quenchants are used to treat steels of higher hardenability e.g. for quenching
alloyed, tempering and case-hardening steels and for hardening tool steels. Interrupted quenching
ofcomponentsispossibleatanydesiredsurfacetemperature.
ThesePolymerquenchantscanbeusedforwiderangeofapplicationsaslistedbelow:

20. 4. Heat Treatment Salts
A range of quenchants is not complete without a selection of molten salts. These are
used for austenising, quenching & tempering
4.1
MarquenchingSalts
The various types of marquenching salts available are classified depending on their
melting point and thereby their lowest application temperature. The maximum possible
O
bath temperature for these products is 550 C. At higher temperature thermal
decompositionofthesaltincreasesrapidly.
The quenching rate of these salts is reduced by carry over from hardening or carburizing
salt baths, contaminants or by carbonate formation at higher temperatures. These
contaminantshavetoberemovedbydesludgingthebathperiodically.

HardeningSalts
These are normally used for heating the components to austenising or hardening
temperature. The salts can be selected depending on the operating temperature range
O

WateradditiveSalts
Water and salt combinations have unique ability to shorten the vapour blanket phase.
