The hard brittle intermetallic compound Fe C that when properly dispersed provides the strengthening in steels.
A compound of iron and carbon commonly known as iron carbide and having the approximate chemical structure, Fe3C. Cementite is characterized by an orthorhombic crystal structure.
An iron carbide (Fe3C) constituent of steel. It is hard, brittle and crystalline. Steel which has cooled slowly from a high temperature contains ferrite and pearlite in relative proportions varying with the chemical composition of the steel. Pearlite is a lamellar structure of ferrite and cementite.
This is the name given to the compound of iron and carbon, Fe3C (iron carbide) which is a microstructural constituent found in many steels. It is very hard and brittle.
A hard, brittle, crystalline compound, the composition of which is represented by the formula Fe3C.
An iron-carbon compound with the Fe3C formula.
the iron carbide constituent of steel and cast iron; very hard and brittle
The second phase formed when carbon is in excess of the solubility limit.
A form of iron carbide (Fe3C) contained in carbon and alloy steels.
A compound of iron and carbon, known chemically as iron carbide and having the approximate chemical formula Fe3C. It is characterized by an orthorhombic crystal structure. When it occurs as a phase in steel, the chemical composition will be altered by the presence of manganese and other carbide-forming elements.
Cementite or iron carbide is a chemical compound with the formula Fe3C, and an orthorhombic crystal structure. It is a hard, brittle material, normally classified as a ceramic in its pure form, though it is more important in metallurgy.
