- Boundary strengthening, which increases with
decreasing spacing between the cementite lamellae
-solid solution hardening, which increases with the
carbon concentration in the ferrite lamellae
- defect strengthening, which increases with the density
of defects (between and within)
Three strengthening mechanisms identified as playing a major role on strength.

Evolution of interlamellar interfaces
Volume of the entire wire is constant, its surface area increases with strain
volume fraction of interfaces ferrite/cementite increases dramatically
= 3.6 Vi ≈ 12% (≈ V )
-interfaces can be considered as another phase
-High elastic stresses associated with interfaces

Field Ion micrographs showed a “lamellar contrast” of ferrite and cementite at ε = 3.6, but by a strain of 5.1 a “uniform contrast” was observed.

Complete dissolution of cementite does NOT happen above =3.47 ______________________________________ the carbon concentration decreases with decreasing thickness of the cementite lamellae. ______________________________________ = 2-3.7 , for the same cementite thickness
the carbon concentration decreases during further straining.
the decomposition is promoted by plastic deformation but within a limited strain regime

-ferrite might be hosting “huge” amounts of C (S.S. hardening)
-part of that C might be segregated to dislocations.
Adapted data from Li, Raabe and Maruyama
C content of ferrite
This would mean a strongly heterogeneous distribution of carbon atoms in ferrite so that most carbon atoms are located near the phase boundary, where most of dislocations get stored
Far from
Close to interface
S.S. Hardening Solid solution hardening …..and the C from dissolved and impoverish cementite goes where?

Whose main strengthening mechanisms are
- Scale of the microstructure (Boundary strengthening) which
decreases as transformation T decreases. NANO-SCALE.
- Dislocation density, which increases as transformation T decreases
and strength of parent austenite increases. 1015-1016 m-2
- C supersaturated austenite and ferrite, which increases as
transformation T decreases
What if I tell you that routinely we work with a microstructure that has strong resemblances with deformed pearlite, by pure phase
transformation?
