In low carbon steels, presence of small quantities of sulphur improves
A. Weldability
B. Formability
C. Machinability
D. Hardenability
Answer: Option C
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Sulfur is normally regarded as an impurity and has an adverse effect on impact properties when a steel is high in sulphur and low in manganese.Sulphur improves machinability but lowers transverse ductility and notched impact toughness and has little effects on the longitudinal mechanical properties.
