Widmanstatten Structure of Steels: Formation and Control | Metallurgy

In this article we will discuss abour the formation of widmanstatten structure of steels. Also learn about the factors controlling its formation. Formation of Widmanstatten Structure of Steels: If a coarse-austenite grained steel is cooled fast but less than its critical cooling rate, then a typical micro-structure develop called widmanstatten structure. (See Fig. 2.38, a typical micrograph illustrating this structure, [...]
