Abstract

The solid-phase transformations of metal materials under high magnetic fields are an important topic in research on the electromagnetic processing of materials. Progress in research on the diffusional phase transformations of Fe–C alloys under high magnetic fields is reviewed. The effects of high magnetic fields on the microstructural evolution in diffusional phase transformations in Fe–C alloys are discussed. The kinetics of ferrite transformations, pearlite transformations, and the precipitation of carbides under high magnetic fields are reviewed in terms of the thermodynamics of phase transformations and the diffusion behavior of carbon atoms. Finally, future trends in research on diffusional phase transformations of Fe–C alloys under high magnetic fields are discussed.
