1. This eutectoid mixture will then crystallize as a microstructure of pearlite . 2. Pearlite is a microstructure occurring in many common grades of steels.3. Bainite is an intermediate of pearlite and martensite in terms of hardness. 4. This occurs as long needles of ferrite within the pearlite . 5. This type of diffusion, called ferrite and cementite, becoming soft pearlite . 6. This transformation is complete at the pearlite finish time ( P f ). 7. When the remaining steel becomes eutectoid in composition, it will crystallize into pearlite . 8. Even faster, and fine pearlite will form. 9. Coarse pearlite is produced when atoms diffuse rapidly after phases that form pearlite nucleate. 10. Coarse pearlite is produced when atoms diffuse rapidly after phases that form pearlite nucleate.
