Annealing Temperature

Annealing temperature refers to a specific heat level used in materials, particularly metals and glass, during a heating process. When a material is heated to its annealing temperature, it softens, allowing internal stresses to relax and improving its overall structure and properties. After holding the material at this temperature for a while, it is cooled down gradually. This process enhances durability, reduces brittleness, and makes the material easier to work with. Essentially, it's a way to reshape and strengthen materials by controlling their heat exposure.
