Abstract

The study presents the results of microstructural examinations of the volume solidifying Fe-C-V alloys containing carbon in the range of 1.45-2.23% and vanadium in the range of 7.33-15.08%. Attention was focussed on near-eutectic alloys. The Fe-C-V eutectic crystallising in these alloys is composed of ferrite and vanadium carbides of VC1-x type, and as such is included in the group of fibrous eutectics. During research, the experimental eutectic lines were plotted for Fe-C-V alloys, and a formula enabling calculation of the eutectic saturation ratio of these alloys was proposed.
