4. Using the isothermal transformation diagram for an iron-carbon alloy of eutectoid composition, specify the nature of the final microstructure of a small specimen that has been subjected to the following time-temperature treatments. In each case assume that the specimen beings at 760°C and that it has been held at this temperature long enough to have achieved a complete and homogeneous austenitic structure. (1) Cool rapidly to 700°C, hold for 104 sec, then quench to room temperature (2) Cool rapidly to 400°C, hold for 20 sec, then quench to room temperature (3) Rapidly cool to 575°C, hold for 20 sec, rapidly cool to 350°C, hold for 100 sec, then quench to room temperature.
