The term "precipitate-free zone" (PFZ) typically refers to an area in a material, often observed in metals and alloys, where no precipitates—small, solid particles formed from a solution—are present. This phenomenon is significant in materials science and metallurgical engineering, particularly in the study of phase transformations and the mechanical properties of materials.
