Abstract

Solidification microstructures and solidification modes in different austenitic Fe-Mn-Si-Cr-Ni shape memory alloys were investigated. Based on these results, a new set of Creq and Nieq equations (Creq = Cr + 1.5Si; Nieq = Ni + 0.164Mn + 22C) were developed. The above results show that Mn is still an austenite former in austenitic Fe-Mn-Si-Cr-Ni alloys containing above 12 wt pct Mn and 4 wt pct Si, but its effect is weaker than that in austenitic stainless steels with lower Mn content.
