I could only find the Carbon-Iron-Silicon Ternary Alloy Phase Diagram (based on 2008 Shaposhnikov N.G.)
*Diagram Type:* ternary, vertical section *Concentration range:* partial composition; Fe97Si3-C0.08Fe96.92Si3 *Temperature:* 200.0 - 1100.0 °C *Nature of investigation:* calculated *Remarks:* metastable equilibrium for C-Fe I don't beleive that the suspension of the CO gas in Fe-Si exists after my search. Please provide a link to your reference.
