Abstract: This paper considers the conditions of the ternary alloys $\mathrm{Fe}$–$\mathrm{C}$–$\mathrm{S}$ free surfaces judging by the images obtained by means of a scanning electron microscope. The hypothesis on the forms of carbon and iron surface phases at room temperature suggested in works on thermal desorption of solid and liquid alloys is confirmed.

Keywords: temperature-programmed desorption, mass spectrometry, surface, surface phases, ternary alloys $\mathrm{Fe}$–$\mathrm{C}$–$\mathrm{S}$, scanning electron microscope.
