Title: Mechanical properties of iron-manganese alloys of high and commercial purities

Journal Article · · Strength Mater. (Engl. Transl.); (United States)
OSTI ID:5574193

The authors investigate Fe-Mn alloys with the purpose to study the mechanical properties within the same concentration range (4-54% Mn) as a function of the purity of melting and the type of the crystal lattice. These Fe-Mn alloys could possibly be used in a definite concentration range as a new class of nickel-free cryogenic materials. Two groups of iron-manganese alloys of high and commercial purities were taken for this investigation; their chemical analyses are presented. The results obtained in an investigation of the fine-structure Fe-Mn alloys by diffraction electron microscopy methods determined the extent of the effect of packing defects and twins on the level of mechanical properties caused by the effect of phase transformation.
