Unfortunately, the tem-perature of the Ac I transformation cannot be estimated with any degreeof certainty from the curves given. In Fig. 4, the limits over which both martensite and troostite are foundin the air-cooled samples have been indicated by dotted lines. SinceCarpenter, Hadfield, and Longmuir did not examine microscopicallytheir samples used for thermal study, it is impossible to set accurately. 0 5 10 Per Cent Nickel Fig. 4.—Effect of nickel on the thermal critical ranges of to per CENT, carbon steels FROM DATA OF CaRPENTER, HaDFIELD, AND LONGMUIR. the limits of the range of nickel content over which, for the rate of coolingadopted, both martensite and troostite will be found and also the com-position at which ferrite no longer separates out, but this latter is probablysomewhere within the former region. The sharp temperature differencebetween Ar and Ari occurring between and 9 per cent, nickel contentsthe author believes to be quite significant and to correspond to the for-mation of appreciable amounts of troostite, for the marked structuraldifference between troostite and pearlite would indicate a similar thermaldifference. Besides these investigations of the changes in the physical propertiesof nickel steels, Meyer^ has studied microscopically the effect of nickel » Meyer: Stahlu. Eisen (1914) 34, 1395, 1456.
