The picture above shows bread mold which is a type zygospore fungi. These fungi produce spores in the black stalk-like structures you can see in the picture.
Wootz steel is a steel characterized by a pattern of bands or sheets of micro carbides within a tempered martensite or pearlite matrix. It is the pioneering steel alloy matrix developed in South India in the sixth century BC and exported globally.It was also known in the ancient world as Seric Iron.ral tradition in India maintains that a small piece of either white or black hematite (or old wootz) had to be included in each melt, and that a minimum of these elements must be present in the steel for the proper segregation of the micro carbides to take place.
Tool Steels are produced in the annealed condition for ease of machining. After machining, the steel is heat-treated and quenched depending upon the type of steel being used. The heat treating and quenching operations increase the toughness and strength of the material. There are three classes of tool steel generally available in the market today - cold work, hot work, and high speed steel: Cold Work steels have high strength, hardenability, impact toughness, and wear resistance.
