1. Cementite

   Cementite (or iron carbide) is a compound of iron and carbon, more precisely an intermediate transition metal carbide with the formula Fe3C. By weight, it is 6.67% carbon and 93.3% iron. It has an orthorhombic crystal structure. It is a hard, brittle material, normally classified as a ceramic in its pure form, and is a frequently found and important constituent in ferrous metallurgy. While cementite is present in most steels and cast irons, it is produced as a raw material in the iron carbide process, which belongs to the family of alternative ironmaking technologies. The name cementite originated from the theory of Floris Osmond and J. Werth, in which the structure of solidified steel consists of a kind of cellular tissue, with ferrite as the nucleus and Fe3C the envelope of the cells. The carbide therefore cemented the iron.

1. cementite

   Cementite is a hard, brittle compound of iron and carbon, known chemically as iron carbide (Fe3C). It is a component of various types of steel and cast iron and forms from the cooling and solidification of iron and carbon melted together. When viewed under a microscope, it appears as a white and shiny structure. Its characteristics provide strength and hardness to these materials.
