The 1045 steel with lamellar spacing of pearlite in nanometer was prepared by aluminothermic reaction casting and annealed at 873 K (600°C) with different time. Microstructures of steels were investigated by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and transmission electron microscope (TEM).

Automatic measurement of pearlitic interlamellar spacing with computer image processing.
For metallurgical studies or routine control of eutectoid steels, it is necessary to perform automatic measurement of pearlitic interlamellar spacing. Various methods, using a combined system of a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and an image analyzer (IA) have been compared and the optimum procedure has been studied.
