The most common use of annealing can be referred to as a heat treatment of metals, but other materials, including glass and plastics, can also be annealed. Depending on the type of material to be used, annealing temperatures range from around 100 degrees C to around 1100°C. Annealing is a quite long and time consuming process that can take hours or even several days because the materiel is first needed to be heated and then cooled to complete the process. The process of annealing is a one in which, a metal, plastic or glass is heated to a specific temperature or till it attains a specific color and then it is cooled at a controlled, specified rate depending upon the materiel. This process alters the physical and chemical properties of the material to make it more malleable, or in simple words improve its ductility which provide stress relief and create a new microstructure.

This process when being performed in a specialized annealing oven gives users the ability to tightly control and monitor the heating and cooling process and further allow proper re-crystallization which is a technique used to purify chemicals and its compounds. The materials are annealed near there melting point and then allowed to cool. Annealing often softens the materials so they can be shaped or cut more easily, as a result it also increases its strength and ductility simultaneously. An important use of annealing metals is to prepare them for further heat treatments in accordance to the desired application.
