Definition of eutectoid in English:
eutectoid
adjective juːˈtɛktɔɪdjuˈtɛktɔɪd
Metallurgy Relating to or denoting an alloy which has a minimum transformation temperature between a solid solution and a simple mixture of metals.
Example sentencesExamples
- Fig.2 shows the effect of alloys on the eutectoid temperature.
- The other, which produces more intensive hardening, is analogous to hardening of binary cadmium-tin alloys by quenching and depends on suppression of eutectoid decomposition of the beta phase.
- Silicon and aluminum increase the graphitization potential for both the eutectic and eutectoid transformations and increase the number of graphite particles.
- Perhaps the most familiar structure in steels is that of the eutectoid pearlite, usually a lamellar mixture of ferrite and cementite.
- The transformation of austenite below the eutectoid temperature can best be presented in an isothermal transformation diagram, in which the beginning and end of transformation is plotted as a function of temperature and time.
