Bainite is a mostly metallic substance that exists in steel after certain heat treatments. The M acro E xpansion T emplate A ttribute L anguage complements TAL, providing macros which allow the reuse of code across Steel is an Alloy consisting mostly of Iron, with a Carbon content between 0 Second Album by Rock and roll Singer-songwriter near-legend Graham Parker. First described by Davenport E. S. and Edgar Bain, it forms when austenite (a solution of carbon in iron) is rapidly cooled past a critical temperature of 723°C (about 1333°F). Edgar C Bain ( September 14, 1891 &ndash November 27, 1971) was a pioneering metallurgist and member of the National Academy Austenite (or gamma phase iron is a metallic non-magnetic solid solution of Iron and an Alloying element Carbon (kɑɹbən is a Chemical element with the symbol C and its Atomic number is 6 Iron (ˈаɪɚn is a Chemical element with the symbol Fe (ferrum and Atomic number 26

A fine non-lamellar structure, bainite commonly consists of ferrite and cementite. Ferrite or alpha iron ( α-Fe) is a Materials science term for Iron, or a Solid solution with iron as the main constituent with a Cementite or iron carbide is a Chemical compound with the formula Fe3C (or Fe2CFe and an Orthorhombic crystal structure It is similar in constitution to pearlite, but with the ferrite forming by a displacive mechanism similar to martensite formation, usually followed by precipitation of carbides from the supersaturated ferrite or austenite. Pearlite is a two-phased, lamellar (or layered structure composed of alternating layers of alpha-ferrite (88 wt% and Cementite (12% that occurs Steel 035 water quenchedpng|thumb|200px|035%C Steel water-quenched from 870°C]] Martensite, named after the German metallurgist Adolf Martens (1850–1914

When formed during continuous cooling, the cooling rate to form bainite is higher than that required to form pearlite, but lower than that to form martensite, in steel of the same composition. Pearlite is a two-phased, lamellar (or layered structure composed of alternating layers of alpha-ferrite (88 wt% and Cementite (12% that occurs

Bainite is generally stronger but less ductile than pearlite. Ductility is a mechanical property used to describe the extent to which materials can be deformed plastically or "stretched" into "wires" without Pearlite is a two-phased, lamellar (or layered structure composed of alternating layers of alpha-ferrite (88 wt% and Cementite (12% that occurs
