For a hypereutectoid steel with 1.2% C cooled slowly to just below 727 °C, what is the mass fraction of proeutectoid cementite? (eutectoid 0.76% C, cementite 6.70% C)

  1. 0.1791
  2. 0.9259
  3. 0.1764
  4. 0.0741

Answer

D. 0.0741

Solution

W Fe3C' = (1.2 - 0.76)/(6.70 - 0.76) = 0.44/5.94 = 0.0741.
