(4) Establishment and assessment of equilibrium with respect to carbon content (0.5 mm sheet annealed for times up
to 120 hours).
(5) Investigation of the possibility of transfer of niobium
between the samples or of silicon contamination from the
quartz capsule.
(6) Carbon analysis (Leco conductometric apparatus for
low concentrations).
Full details are to be found in References 1 and 12 to 16.

IV.
Figures 1 and 2 give examples of the raw gas equilibration data from which the solubility limits were extracted.
Each point represents the average of two independent
equilibrations and at least 8 carbon determinations on pure
iron samples used to check for equilibration (equal to the
final carbon contents of the Fe-C samples). Points on each
isoactivity line correspond to the alloy compositions within
the same capsule.
Each alloy sample was metallographically checked for
the presence of precipitated carbides, and the samples
in the single phase and two phase regions could clearly
be delineated.
The point at which each isoactivity line changes slope
corresponds to the Y/7 + NbCx equilibrium and represents
the maximum amounts of niobium and carbon that can remain in solution in austenite at that carbon activity before
precipitation of NbCx begins. The uncertainties in both the
niobium and carbon contents have been used to estimate the
errors in the tie lines. At each carbon activity, the possible
changes in slopes of the straight lines that represent the best
linear least squares fit of the points in the two phase and the
single phase regions have been taken into account in arriving
at the solubility products indicated in Table III. In some
cases, however, horizontal lines have necessarily been
drawn in the single phase region corresponding to the binary
carbon level. The uncertainty recorded for each of the solubility limits represents the maximum deviation and thus
corresponds approximately to a 95 pct confidence limit.
The results of the chemical analysis of carbides extracted
from steel S 1 are shown in Table IV. The carbide present in
this steel at 1000 ~ was identified as NbC0.9. The soluble
niobium and carbon were calculated from the total amounts
of niobium and carbon in the steel S 1 and the mean value of
niobium present as carbide.
