metallographic examination

    0.01 sec.

metallographic examination

Technique used by archaeologists for analysing the manufacturing techniques of metal artefacts. A cross-sectional slice of an artefact is polished, etched to highlight internal structures, and examined under a metallurgical microscope. The reflected light of the microscope enhances uneven surfaces, revealing grain size, shape, and boundaries, inclusions, fabric, defects, and other detail.
