Temper brittleness of a material can be fairly detected by the ________________ test ?

Correct answer: B. Notched bar impact

  • A. Fatigue
  • B. Notched bar impact
  • C. Tensile
  • D. Hardness

Explanation

Temper brittleness reduces toughness, especially in a notched specimen, so it is revealed effectively by a notched-bar impact test. Tensile and hardness tests may show little change even when impact toughness has deteriorated.
