- Processing
- The sample was metallographically polished flat prior to transformation. For details see E. Swallow & H. Bhadeshia, Materials Science and Technology 12 (1996) 121
- Applications
- Sample preparation
- Polished flat prior to transformation. All visible relief is due to phase change - the sample is unetched.

- 1 μm
- Further information
- Steel, austenitised at 1200 centigrade for 120 s and then transformed isothermally at 350 centigrade for 2000 s before cooling to room temperature. The specimen was polished prior to transformation. This atomic force microscope image shows the displacements caused by the formation of bainite.
