  2. Pearlite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearlite

    Pearlite occurs at the eutectoid of the iron-carbon phase diagram (near the lower left). Pearlite is a two-phased, lamellar (or layered) structure composed of alternating layers of ferrite (87.5 wt%) and cementite (12.5 wt%) that occurs in some steels and cast irons. During slow cooling of an iron-carbon alloy, pearlite forms by a eutectoid ...

  3. Carbon steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_steel

    The term carbon steel may also be used in reference to steel which is not stainless steel; in this use carbon steel may include alloy steels. High carbon steel has many different uses such as milling machines, cutting tools (such as chisels) and high strength wires. These applications require a much finer microstructure, which improves the ...

  4. Austenite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austenite

    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] In plain-carbon steel, austenite exists above the critical eutectoid temperature of 1000 K (727 °C); other alloys of steel have different eutectoid temperatures.

  5. Bainite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bainite

    Bainite is a plate-like microstructure that forms in steels at temperatures of 125–550 °C (depending on alloy content). [1] First described by E. S. Davenport and Edgar Bain, [2] [3] it is one of the products that may form when austenite (the face-centered cubic crystal structure of iron) is cooled past a temperature where it is no longer thermodynamically stable with respect to ferrite ...

  6. Acicular ferrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acicular_ferrite

    Acicular ferrite is a microstructure of ferrite in steel that is characterised by needle-shaped crystallites or grains when viewed in two dimensions. The grains, actually three-dimensional in shape, have a thin lenticular shape. This microstructure is advantageous over other microstructures for steel because of its chaotic ordering, which ...

  7. Martensite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martensite

    Martensite in AISI 4140 steel. 0.35% carbon steel, water-quenched from 870 °C. Martensite is a very hard form of steel crystalline structure. It is named after German metallurgist Adolf Martens. By analogy the term can also refer to any crystal structure that is formed by diffusionless transformation. [1]

  8. Austempering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austempering

    The red line shows the cooling curve for austempering. Austempering is heat treatment that is applied to ferrous metals, most notably steel and ductile iron. In steel it produces a bainite microstructure whereas in cast irons it produces a structure of acicular ferrite and high carbon, stabilized austenite known as ausferrite.

  9. Dual-phase steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-phase_steel

    Dual-phase steel (DP steel) is a high-strength steel that has a ferritic – martensitic microstructure. DP steels are produced from low or medium carbon steels that are quenched from a temperature above A 1 but below A 3 determined from continuous cooling transformation diagram. This results in a microstructure consisting of a soft ferrite ...
