1) An isothermal reversible reaction in which a solid solution on cooling is converted into two or more intimately mixed solids The number of solids formed are the same number of components in the system 2) An alloy having the same chemical composition indicated by the eutectoid point on a equilibrium diagram
An isothermal reversible transformation in which a solid solution is converted into two or more intimately mixed solids, the number of solids formed being the same as the number of components in the system An alloy having the composition indicated by the eutectoid point on an equilibrium diagram An alloy structure of intermixed solid constituents formed by a eutectoid transformation
A mixture of two or more constituents which forms on cooling from a solid solution and transforms on heating at a constant minimum temperature A eutectoid steel contains approximately 0 83% carbon
upon cooling, one solid phase transforms isothermally and reversibly into two new solid phases that are intimately mixed
