  • ruТип стали, в котором содержание углерода меньше эвтектоидного состава (0,8% углерода), что приводит к микроструктуре, содержащей как проэвтектоидный феррит, так и перлит при охлаждении.

A type of steel in which the carbon content is less than the eutectoid composition (0.8% carbon), resulting in a microstructure that contains both proeutectoid ferrite and pearlite upon cooling.

  1. Steel with less than 0.8% carbonC2formal

    A type of steel that has a carbon content lower than the eutectoid composition (0.8% carbon). It consists primarily of ferrite and pearlite at room temperature.

    • Hypo-eutectoid steel is commonly used in construction due to its ductility.
    • The microstructure of hypo-eutectoid steel shows ferrite grains and pearlite colonies.
    • Engineers often choose hypo-eutectoid steel for structural beams.
