History

Which outcome occurred during early Song Dynasty iron production, due to limitations in control?

A)Frequent brittle failures arise in tools
B)Improved control of cementation processes
C)Increased energy requirements for blast furnaces
D)More efficient steel forging techniques grow

💡 Explanation

Early iron production suffered sporadic carbon concentration because precise decarburization using reverberatory furnaces was underdeveloped; therefore, some Chinese cast iron tools fractured due to fluctuating areas of weakness, rather than consistent composition throughout.
