In addition, silicon in iron decreases carbon solubility in austenite and tends to dissociate iron carbide. Thus, the carbon content of pearlite in iron can be appreciably lower than in the plain carbon and low-alloy steels. Depending on the silicon content and the cooling rate, the carbon content of pearlite varies and can be as low as 0.50 wt% C with 2.5% Si.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"color:black\">The dependence of critical temperatures on silicon content is shown in the graph, for cooling rates of 5 \u00b0C\/h (9 \u00b0F\/h). In this figure, the upper critical is shown as the temperature where ferrite first begins to form on cooling, and the lower critical temperature is the temperature where there is no remaining austenite. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"color:black\">Critical temperature values for <i>heating<\/i> at this same rate can be obtained by adding 33\u00b0C (60\u00b0F) to the critical temperatures on cooling.
