Steel with carbon below 0.8 % is called ________.
eutectoid
steel
hypo-eutectoid
steel
austenite
hyper-Eutectoid steel
hypo-eutectoid
steel
Hypoeutectoid
steel : 0.02<%C<0.8
Eutectiod
steel : 0.8%C
Hypereutectoid
steel : 0.8<%C<2.1
Steel
containing 0.8 % C is known as eutectoid steel. The equilibrium microstructure
of eutectoid steel obtained at room temperature is pearlite.
Hence,
the correct option is (B).
