Consider a Fe-0.5% C alloy. What is the amount of pro eutectoid phase (in percentage ) just above the eutectoid temperature
(a) Fill in the blanks of possible phase transformations for gamma-ferrite as a function of temperature. Use the corresponding terminology (austenite, ferrite, perlite, bainite, martensite, cemenite).
A 609 g eutectoid steel ( about 0.8%C) is heated to 1,002 C and cooled slowly through the eutectorid temperature. This results in the formation of cementite Fe3C (6.67%C) and ferrite (0.025%C). Calculate the number of grams of cementite that form in the steel.
