Exploring Inhibition Mechanism of Si on Cementite Nucleation in Hypereutectoid Steel: Experiments and First-Principles Calculations

To clarify the influence of Si on cementite nucleation during the solidification of hypereutectoid steel, the types and microstructure of cementite in hypereutectoid steel with various Si concentrations were investigated by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Additionally, the interf...
