This particular microstructure morphogenesis is explained by the presence of numerous intergranular (or isolated) carbides inside the ferrite matrix, inherited from the hot-rolling. Thermokinetic analysis accounting for the cementite composition shows that the pearlite islands transformation necessarily involves the partition of substitutional elements. Conversely, the dissolving isolated carbides undergo a partition/partitionless transition on heating. After the dissolution of the cementite, a final ferrite/austenite transformation takes place. The phase transformation kinetics increases with increasing heating rates, despite the thermal-activated nature of the austenite growth process. This is interpreted thanks to kinetic simulations with DICTRA software, which allow to analyze the austenite growth regimes involving or not the partition of the alloying elements.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actamat.2021.116920} (DOI).
