the effect of quenching at biodegradable oils in various proportion on EN 31 steel is studied in the present work. This steel is austenitized and is quenched in different media of biodegradable oils; groundnut oil, neem oil, and its combinations. Micro structural analysis is carried find the effect of quenching medium on EN-31 steel. In this experiment mainly 4 samples of EN 31 Steels are used.ie, pure neem oil, pure groundnut oil, 60:40 ratios of both. Finally, observed that the hardness of the sample with 100% groundnut oil has highest &combination of 60% neem oil & 40 % groundnut oil has less. The martensite concentration is also reveals the same in metallographic observation.ie, pure groundnut oil has higher concentration of martensite of about 34.68% & sample of 60% neem oil & 40 % groundnut oil has lesser concentration of 9.37%.Martensite concentration increases the hardness is also increase. So the microscopic study as well as Rockwell hardness test reveals the same result.
