The fracture behaviour of single-crystal pure iron was studied by four-point bending of pre-cracked specimens at temperatures between 77 and 180 K and strain rates between 4.46 Γ 10 Γ5 and 4.46 Γ 10 Γ3 s Γ1 . Fracture behaviour changes from brittle to ductile with increasing temperature. The brittle
