Abstract
The isothermal formation of bainite, the temperature dependence of the bainite reaction, the surface distortions due to the bainite formation, the lowering of Ms temperature due to the bainite transformation and the behaviour of bainite plates during the step quenching were studied by using a hot stage microscope. From these results, it is concluded that bainite is formed by a shear process governed by diffusion.
