Hello,

I am looking for a specification for identifying pearlite in cast iron sample. I see that the AES ductile iron microstructures chart for judging pearlite / ferrite percentages. I also have ASTM A247 - Evaluating the Microstructure of Graphite in Iron Castings. However, that does not have much on pearlite.
