Directional Transformation in Steel--Texture Behavior and Martensite Morphology.

Abstract

Previous work has shown that certain Fe-Ni-Mn alloys may be suitable for producing an aligned martensite. These alloys are austenitic at room temperature and transform into lath martensite with low Ms and Md temperatures. The work is concerned with the texture behavior of the austenite in Fe -27% Ni -2% Mn and the morphology of the martensite in Fe -25% Ni -2% Mn. The austenitic deformation texture at 200C, 400C, 600C and 800C was found to be (100) (011), which is reported to be a typical deformation texture for bcc metals, but is not known to have ever been previously reported for a fcc material.
