This episode examines phase transformations in materials, emphasizing the role of time in addition to temperature. It introduces isothermal (TTT) and continuous cooling (CCT) diagrams, which map how different cooling paths influence microstructure. Types of transformations—congruent, incongruent, and diffusionless—are explained, along with the Avrami equation that models transformation kinetics. The episode concludes by linking microstructures such as pearlite, bainite, and martensite to their mechanical properties, including strength, hardness, and ductility.
