Abstract

Conversion electron, X-ray backscattering and conventional transmission57Fe Mössbauer measurements have been performed to investigate the origin of the remarkable work hardening at the surface of a high-manganese steel which is called Hadfield steel. Mössbauer results show that α′ martensite has no relation to work hardening. From the comparison of conversion electron to X-ray backscattering spectra, the occurrence of decarbonization is suggested at the surface. The transmission Mössbauer spectrum at 20 K for deformed specimen shows the existence of ε martensite which could be related to the work hardening of Hadfield steel.
