Using the isothermal transformation diagram for a 0.45 wt% C steel alloy (Animated Figure 10.40), determine the approximate percentages of the microconstituents that form the final microstructure of a small specimen that has been subjected to the following time– temperature treatments. In each case assume that the specimen begins at 845°C (1550°F), and that it has been held at this temperature long enough to have achieved a complete and homogeneous austenitic structure.

Question

Using the isothermal transformation diagram for a 0.45 wt% C steel alloy (Animated Figure 10.40), determine the approximate percentages of the microconstituents that form the final microstructure of a small specimen that has been subjected to the following time– temperature treatments. In each case assume that the specimen begins at 845°C (1550°F), and that it has been held at this temperature long enough to have achieved a complete and homogeneous austenitic structure.

Rapidly cool to 250°C (480°F), hold for 103 s, then quench to room temperature.
