Question
![[Chapter 10] In the figure below, we see the transition from austenite (point a) through the
eutectoid point to pearlite (point b). However, other microstructures (bainite, martensite) can also
be formed from austenite through the same eutectoid point. How is this possible, given that they
are not on the diagram below?

This diagram does not show transformations below 400°c.
Austenite must transform to pearlite before it can form bainite or
martensite.
O Bainite and martensite are non-equilibrium microstructures and this is an
equilibrium phase diagram.
This is an outdated diagram.
