text: The main difference between annealing hardening and tempering is that annealing is done to soften a metal or an alloy and hardening is done to increase the hardness of a metal or alloy whereas tempering is done to reduce the brittleness of quenched metal or alloy.

text: The main difference between heat treatment and annealing is that heat treatment is used to obtain different desired properties (ex: increased strength, increased hardness, impact resistance, softening, increased ductility, etc.) whereas annealing is mainly done to soften a metal.
