Conclusion
In the temperature range between Ac1 and Ac3 the chemical composition of the α and γ phases is not identical not only in carbon but also in alloying elements—the concentration of α stabilizers (aluminum, silicon) is higher in ferrite than in austenite, and the concentration of γ stabilizer (nickel) is higher in austenite than in ferrite.
