The formation of ferrite and iron carbide will start at the austenite grain boundaries and the final pearlite microstructure will have lamella of ferrite and cementite. This is illustrated on the ...

The three primary phases of steel microstructure are ferrite, cementite, and austenite, and their transformations play a ...

Low carbon steel alloys have a composition close to the Eutectoid composition: Fe - 0.77 wt% C. The transition that determines the micro-structure of the alloy is a solid-state process: Austenite <-> ...

In this video we'll explore metals, their microstructure ... that shows us the different phases like ferrite, austenite and cementite that can be found in steels for equilibrium conditions.
