This study carried out a series of experiments involving impact tests (Drop weight type & Charpy type with a standard specimen and newly designed I-type specimen), hardness tests, and fracture surface observations of French-made roll shell steel (F), abnormal roll shell steel (M), reheated roll shell steel (R), and S25C steel under heat treatment conditions ($570^{\circ}C$) to analyze the cause and prevent the roll shell steel's brittle fracture and its damage.

This study involved a series of experiments, which included impact tests (drop weight & Charpy) and hardness tests under various heat treatment conditions, followed by fractography observations of Normal Roll Shell steel (NRS), Abnormal Roll Shell steel (ARS), and S25C steel, in order to analyze the cause of brittle fracture and damages in Roll Shell steel. The optimal tempering temperature was characterized for ARS and NRS.
