Conclusions
-
1.
In Fe-Cr-5% Al alloys the recrystallization temperature increases with an increase in chromium content in the ferrite.
-
2.
The temperature range of heat treatment corresponding to the maximum plasticity of the alloys narrows from 400 to 100°C with an increase in the chromium content in the solid solution from 15 to 45%.
-
3.
The range of allowable grain sizes providing high plasticity of the alloys narrows from 20–80 to 20–50 μm with an increase in chromium content in the solid solution from 15 to 45%.
