Phase Diagrams

This module provides a foundational understanding of phase diagrams, with a specific focus on the Fe-Fe3C phase diagram. You will explore the principles and applications of this essential tool in material science, setting the stage for the subsequent modules.

Building on the knowledge gained in the previous module, this segment delves deeper into the Fe-Fe3C phase diagram and its relevance to steel as a model system. You will examine alloy phase diagrams and their implications for predicting microstructures and properties of carbon steel alloys.

In this module, you will further explore the Fe-Fe3C phase diagram, focusing on the model system itself. Through a series of lessons and quizzes, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of predicting phase transformations and microstructures in steel alloys based on the phase diagram.

Delving into non-equilibrium phase diagrams, this module investigates the practical applications of phase transformations in material science. You will explore the complexities of heat treatments and their impact on the microstructures and properties of steel alloys.

The final module encompasses an in-depth exploration of heat treatments, emphasizing their role in manipulating the properties of steel alloys. You will also examine isothermal transformation diagrams, culminating in a comprehensive understanding of the practical implications of phase diagrams in material science.
