Question

What is known as burnishing?

Answer 1

Answer:

Burnishing is the plastic deformation of a surface due to sliding contact with another object. It smooths the surface and makes it shinier. Burnishing may occur on any sliding surface if the contact stress locally exceeds the yield strength of the material.

Answer 2

Burnishing:

Explanation:

• The first pottery was probably manufactured by Neolithic people. They created ceramics on a slow wheel known as a turntable or with their hands. The earthenware was polished with pebbles before the fire. Burnishing is the term for this procedure.

• The plastic deformation of a surface caused by sliding contact with another object is known as burnishing. It makes the surface shinier and smoother. If the contact stress locally exceeds the material's yield strength, burnishing can occur on any sliding surface. Both unintentionally as a failure mode and purposely as part of a production process, the phenomena can occur. It's a cold-working squeezing operation.
