Allotropic Forms of Iron (With Diagram) | Industries | Metallurgy

Iron has got the following three allotropic forms of crystal at different temperatures. When iron is heated from normal temperature to high temperature (molten state), it undergoes all the allotropic forms.  1. Alpha Iron: It occurs from normal temperature of 910°C and has got body-centred cubic lattice crystals. (a) Ferromagnetic alpha iron which occurs from normal temperature to 770°C. (b) [...]
