Beta Iron Info

, it undergoes a true allotropic transformation into Austenite ( ), which has a Face-Centered Cubic (FCC) structure.

In metallurgy, ( ) refers to a specific non-magnetic state of iron that occurs when alpha iron ( ) is heated above its Curie temperature ( beta iron

). Historically considered a distinct allotrope, it is now primarily viewed as the high-temperature, paramagnetic form of ferrite. Key Features and Characteristics While it was once debated whether , it undergoes a true allotropic transformation into
