The Iron-Carbon Phase Diagram - IspatGuru Fig 1 Iron carbon phase diagram C is an interstitial impurity in Fe. It forms a solid solution with alpha, gamma and delta phases of iron. Maximum solubility of C in alpha iron is 0.025 % at 727 deg C. Body centred cubic (BCC) iron has relatively small interstitial positions. Iron-Iron Carbide Phase Diagram | Material Engineering The Iron-Iron carbide (Fe-Fe 3 C) is defined by five individual phases and four invariant reactions. Five phases are- α-ferrite (BCC) Fe-C solid solution, γ-austenite (FCC) Fe-C solid solution, δ -ferrite (BCC) Fe-C solid solution, Fe 3 C (iron carbide) or cementite - an inter- metallic compound and liquid Fe-C solution. Cast iron - tec-science The phase diagram below shows the complete iron-carbon phase diagram of the metastable system in which the carbon is present in the microstructure in the form of cementite. The microstructure in the metastable system can therefore consist of a maximum of 100 % cementite. ...
