Abstract
For steel allows regardless of composition there is an accepted relationship that allows an estimate of strength from the measured hardness. This relationship is useful because microhardness testing can be done on samples that are too small for tensile tests. However, the measured strength of high-phosphorus low-carbon iron that has been strengthened by work hardening diverges from these standard values, being stronger for a given hardness than predicted. -- MCI
