I wrote a series of articles about how cryo changes steel, including transformation of retained austenite, increase in hardness, reduction in toughness, and improvement in wear resistance. There is a lot of debate surrounding cryogenic processing studies so it was a lot to go through. I also included toughness studies we performed on Z-Wear (CPM CruWear) and the CATRA studies on 154CM that looked at cryo. Everything you wanted to know and more about cryo.
