Conclusions
The presence of δ-phase and decomposition of martensite in fine particles as a result of heating by large particles alter the relative intensities of the austenite and martensite lines. Because of this, determination of the amount of residual austenite in a fine fraction by the existing x-ray methods gives low results. A more accurate estimate of the amounts of residual austenite in fine and coarse particles is obtained by measuring the areas of corresponding austenite lines.
