Abstract

A regular solution model for the difference of the chemical free energy between γ and ε phases during γ→ε martensitic transformation in the Fe-Mn binary system has been reexamined and partly modified based on many articles concerning the M s and A s temperatures of Fe-Mn alloys. Using the regular solution model, the measured M s temperatures, and a thermodynamic model for the stacking fault energy (SFE) of austenite (γ), the driving force for γ→ε martensitic transformation, and the SFE of γ have been calculated. The driving force for γ→ε martensitic transformation increases linearly from − 68 to − 120 J/mole with increasing Mn content from 16 to 24 wt pct. The SFE of γ decreases to approximately 13 at. pct Mn and then increases with increasing Mn content, which is in better agreement with Schumann’s result rather than Volosevich et al.’s result.
