(i) Name and write down the full equations of the two main invariant points on the Fe-C phase diagram. ©) (Gi) Determine the amount of ferrite that will present in the pearlite formed? (10) NB. Show all the calculations carried out in order to arrive to the final answer. (iii) The amount of cementite present in the final microstructure? eo) (b) Sketch the and clearly label the microstructures you would expect to form when a Fe-C alloy with 1.5 wt.% carbon at 1600°C is slowly cooled to the following temperatures: 1100°C, 800°C and 600°C, © (©) Determine the theoretical maximum mass fraction of pro-eutectoid cementite for a hyper- eutectoid iron-carbon stee! alloy? ©) (@) Ina lead — Sn system, the following reaction takes place. Liquid (61.9 % Sn) 183°C’ a (19.2% Sn) + B (97.5% Sn) ling points of lead and tin are 327°C and 232°C, respectively. ng the information given above, draw a neatly labelled sketch phase diagram. Also fcate the at least one of each ofthe following equilibrium lines if present. Liquidus, solidus and solvus lines. cS) (i) If material of precisely eutectic composition is solidified, it forms the classic eutectic ‘microstructure. Describe this microstructure and explain, briefly, how it forms. (5) 143) QUESTION (@ (i) Name the phases you expect to get after each ofthe heat treatments shown in Figure 1. 10 | (i) Bit enplin why some ofthe phases statin) ana found on the tn earbon phase diagram. 6) (6) (i) Determine the critical radius r* and the activation free energy AG* forthe solidification of'ron if nucleation is homogeneous. The supercooling valuc is 295°C whilst the values for the latent heat of fusion and surface free energy are —1.85 * 10° J/m? and 0.204 J/m?, respectively. You have also been provided with the following additional information: AHy (1.85 « 10° Jim?) and y (0.204 J/m*) (4) 2y"T, \a ae a 1 aan F J@TY (Gi) Now calculate the number of atoms found in a nucleus of critical size. Assume a lattice parameter of 0.292 nm for solid iron at its melting temperature, © Hint. The number of unit cells found in this critical nucleus is the ratio of critical nucleus and unit cell volumes. Rapid cooling © Heat @ eating © Figure 1 (6) Given the conversion-time relationship shown in the figure below. Comment on the nature of the reaction with respect to temperature, paying particular attention to the rate ofthe reaction and what influences it 6) (30) - 100- & 807 5 or 6 Or # 20F 0 i THe (min) (Logarithmic scale) (8 () Differentiate between ductile and brittle fracture, 4 (ii) Explain the significance of the ductile brittle transition temperature when choosing a particular material for a given application. 8) (Gi) Ductile to brittle transitions predominantly occur in metals with BCC unit cell structures whilst FCC based materials are largely unaffected. In your opinion what causes this difference in behaviour? @ () Sketch the two typical S-N response curves you would expect to get when testing the fatigue properties of a material © [16] TOTAL: {89}
