Quenching

1. Rapid cooling, as by immersion in oil or water, of a metal object from the high temperature at which it has been shaped. This usually is undertaken to maintain mechanical properties associated with a crystalline structure or phase distribution that would be lost upon slow cooling. (Brittanica). 2. Material processing in which a sample is cooled by immersion in a fluid. (TIB, https://www.britannica.com/technology/quenching-materials-processing). 3. the rapid cooling of a workpiece in water, gas, oil, polymer, air, or other fluids to obtain certain material properties. (Wikipedia). 3. The quenching process is a crucial step in the heat treatment of metals. It’s a process of rapidly cooling a piece of metal in order to achieve or modify specific properties like hardness, strength, or toughness.
