Abstract

The effect of the magnetic transition of γ austenite phase on γ → ε martensitic transformation in Fe[sbnd]Mn binary alloys was investigated to calm a longstanding controversy over whether or not γ → ε martensitic transformation is terminated at the Néel temperature of γ phase (TN γ), where the paramagnetic-to-antiferromagnetic transition occurs during cooling. Literature review on both martensite start (Ms) temperature and TN γ, experiments, and thermodynamic calculation clearly revealed that the γ → ε martensitic transformation in Fe[sbnd]Mn binary alloys is not terminated at TN γ, but suppressed at temperatures below TN γ due to the high stability of antiferromagnetic γ phase.
