Fig. 10.28 Some examples of decarburized wire rod (cross sections). (a) Type 1 decarburization profile (schematically presented in c). (b) Type 2 decarburization profile (schematically presented in d). Inside the material, the microstructure is mostly composed of pearlite. In the decarburized regi... More

Fig. 2.11 Micrographs showing different degrees of decarburization. (a) Total decarburization caused by severe furnace leak during gas carburization of 1018 steel (1% nital etch, 500×). (b) Partially decarburized specimen. 190× More
