    Phase Diagrams II: The Iron-Iron Carbide Diagram

    Uploaded by

    prafulla
    The document summarizes the iron-iron carbide phase diagram, including the key phases of ferrite, austenite, and cementite. It explains the different types of steel based on carbon content, such as hypoeutectoid steel which forms proeutectoid ferrite before the eutectoid reaction, eutectoid steel which directly forms pearlite at the eutectoid point, and hypereutectoid steel which forms proeutectoid cementite before pearlite. The objectives are to explain terms related to the phase diagram and identify phases and their characteristics for different alloy compositions.
