Abstract
Effect of prior plastic deformation of austenite on the martensite start temperature, volume fraction and strength of martensite have been studied in an Fe-14.3%Mn-3.7%Mo alloy. Mo was chosen to examine the possible effect of the third alloying element in an Fe-Mn based alloy and the obtained results were compared with those of the Fe-Mn binary alloys given in the literature. Predeformation of austenite created considerable changes on the formation characteristics and also the strength of the martensitic phase and the obtained results were discussed in terms of the dislocations formed during the deformation process.
