Resum

This paper describes the anisotropic fracture behaviour of V-shaped notched samples of heavily cold drawn pearlitic steels, analyzing the key role of a new (non-conventional) microstructural unit in such steels: the pearlitic pseudocolony, a special colony in which the lamellae are not oriented along the wire axis or cold drawing direction (contrarily to what happens in the normal conventional colonies), thereby producing a clearly anomalous (very high) local interlamellar spacing, making the pseudocolonies weakest units or potential fracture initiation loci and promoting crack deflection associated with anisotropic fracture behaviour and mixed-mode propagation.
