Fine Structure of Lamellar Pearlite in Iron–Carbon Alloys (Review)

This paper presents a review of studies on pearlite, the most important structural constituent of carbon and low-alloy steels. It mainly focuses on the fine structure of pearlite revealed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Additionally, the paper highli...

Description
Summary:This paper presents a review of studies on pearlite, the most important structural constituent of carbon and low-alloy steels. It mainly focuses on the fine structure of pearlite revealed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Additionally, the paper highlights the key areas for future exploration to better understand the pearlite transformation in steels and the response of ferrite-cementite mixtures to different external loading conditions.
