    The document describes the iron-iron carbide (Fe-Fe3C) phase diagram. It outlines the different phases in the system including alpha and gamma ferrite, cementite, and liquid. It identifies the peritectic reaction at 0.18% C and 1,493°C where liquid transforms to gamma. Eutectic and eutectoid reactions are noted, including the eutectic at 4.3% C and 1,147°C and eutectoid at 0.76% C and 727°C. Diagrams show the cooling of hypoeutectoid and hypereutectoid steels. Different annealing processes are also listed.
