eutectoid [yü′tek‚tȯid]
(metallurgy)
A mixture of phases whose composition is determined by the eutectoid point in the solid region of an equilibrium diagram and whose constituents are formed by the eutectoid reaction.
(physical chemistry)
The point in an equilibrium diagram for a solid solution at which the solution on cooling is converted to a mixture of solids.

It also was found that microcarbide formation is controlled by: elements that control carbon diffusion rate between eutectic and eutectoid temperatures; shakeout temperature; and excess concentrations of carbide-forming elements.
quick eutectoid phase transformation, resulting in a refined pearlite structure.
Factors that can influence tool life and machinability include metallurgical conditions, such as graphite size and distribution, composition, ferrite/ pearlite ratio, cooling rate from the eutectic through the eutectoid temperatures, and the presence of either endogenous or exogenous inclusions (Fig.
