Abstract

AbstractVickers microhardness measurements are carried out on single crystals of potassium dihydrogen phosphate. Dependence of hardness on indentation load and anisotropy in hardness of (100) and (011) planes are described. Crack patterns around indentation are found to be dependent on indenter orientation. Also explained are the fracture at high indentation load and etch patterns obtained on indented surfaces.
