Taylor-White process \Tay"lor-White" proc`ess\ (Metal.)
   A process (invented about 1899 by Frederick W. Taylor and
   Maunsel B. White) for giving toughness to self-hardening
   steels. The steel is heated almost to fusion, cooled to a
   temperature of from 700[deg] to 850[deg] C. in molten lead,
   further cooled in oil, reheated to between 370[deg] and
   670[deg] C., and cooled in air.
