Iron Carbon Phase Diagram example problem

[@yigitcan824]

Professor I have a question .Maximum solubility of carbon in FCC iron is 2%
but steel is produced below 1.4% carbon and cast iron is produced between 3-4.5% carbon. Why?

[@mustafakhalil007]

its very interesting lect. Prof Ramsay, good luck

[@richjbarnett]

I get this to be 1.62% Carbon???

[@luizmartinssouza7867]

Authors define the eutectoid point of the FeC diagram with different% C (example: 0.77%, 0.86% and 0.83%). What is correct value?

[@fnotrade]

Luiz Martins Souza all correct

[@mentor1324]

0.76

[@stefanshi3577]

There is 760 grams of ferrite and 1 kg of hyperutectic steel, isn't the weight percent of ferrite 76 instead of 0.76? @Scott Ramsay

[@freshcaffe]

1 kg equals 1000 grams. So 760 grams means 0.76 kg.

[@SamratAllabadi]

760g was ferrite's amount, how can u equate it to carbon's amount?
