Iron allotropes, showing the differences in structure. The alpha iron (α-Fe) is a body-centered cubic (BCC) and the gamma iron (γ-Fe) is a face-centered cubic (FCC). At atmospheric pressure, three allotropic forms of iron exist, depending on temperature: alpha iron (α-Fe, ferrite), gamma iron (γ-Fe, austenite), and delta iron (δ-Fe).
Iron-carbon phase diagram, showing the conditions under which austenite (γ) is stable in carbon steel. Allotropes of iron; alpha iron and gamma iron. Austenite, also known as gamma-phase iron (γ-Fe), is a metallic, non-magnetic allotrope of iron or a solid solution of iron with an alloying element. [1]
Thermal diffusivity is usually denoted by lowercase alpha ... Iron: 23 [15] Argon (300 K, 1 atm) 22 [14] Nitrogen (300 K, 1 atm) 22 [14] Air (300 K) 19
The diagram depicts two astrophysical quantities of stars, their iron abundance relative to hydrogen [Fe/H] - a tracer of stellar metallicity - and the enrichment of alpha process elements relative to iron, [α/Fe]. The iron abundance is noted as the logarithm of the ratio of a star's iron abundance compared to that of the Sun:
Martensite is formed in carbon steels by the rapid cooling of the austenite form of iron at such a high rate that carbon atoms do not have time to diffuse out of the crystal structure in large enough quantities to form cementite (Fe 3 C). Austenite is gamma-phase iron (γ-Fe), a solid solution of iron and alloying elements.
Iron-60 is an iron isotope with a half-life of 2.6 million years, [12] [13] but was thought until 2009 to have a half-life of 1.5 million years. It undergoes beta decay to cobalt-60 , which then decays with a half-life of about 5 years to stable nickel-60.
