The austenite decomposition in C-Mn steel containing boron was studied by c
ontinuous cooling from 1100 and 845 degreesC using the Jominy test. The res
ults indicate that the different cooling speeds and the presence of boron r
efine and change the percentage of ferrite microstructure, martensite, and
fine pearlite. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
