  "abstract": "The present work combines advanced microstructural characterization and thermodynamic calculations to investigate austenite formation from ferrite-pearlite cold rolled steel. Slow 3°C/s and relatively fast 30°C/s heating rates similar to the industrial processing conditions were applied. In situ synchrotron High Energy X-ray diffraction (HEXRD) was used to track the evolutions of austenite, ferrite and cementite fractions in real time as a function of temperature. The carbon concentration in austenite was measured by tracking its cell parameter. Main stages of microstructural evolutions, including recrystallization, were examined by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) after interrupted heating at different temperatures. The austenite transformation kinetics during the heating stage were observed to be independent of the heating rate, regardless of interactions with recrystallization. This is interpreted by assuming that the austenite grows into ferrite under local equilibrium with negligible partition (LENP). The concentration of carbon in the austenite is in agreement with this assumption, but the fraction of austenite is overestimated. This discrepancy is interpreted by considering the kinetics of the cementite carbides dissolution, which retards the release of the carbon and thus the formation of austenite.",
