by gaseous pockets in the ingot. (f) Embedded scale from excessive scaling during
prior heating operations. (g) Cracks with little or no oxide present on their edges when
the metal cools in the mold, setting up highly stressed areas. (h) Seams that develop
from elongated trapped-gas pockets or from cracks during working. (j) Laps when
excessive material is squeezed out and turned back into the material. (k) Chevron or
internal bursts.

The third mechanism is the so-called carbon drag effect. In this model, moving
dislocations during deformation carry the trapped carbon atoms because of the
large attractive interaction between the carbon and the dislocation. The
dislocations generated from the interface of lamellar cementite move to the
lamellar ferrite with trapped carbon atoms, and carbon atoms remain in the ferrite
by the pair annihilation of the dislocations. Consequently, highly supersaturated
solute carbon is formed.
