From the change in the hardness and the results of metallographic and x-ray analysis isothermal transformation diagrams were plotted for alloys of the critical composition of the VT22 type in which molybdenum and vanadium were partially or completely replaced with iron and chromium. Increasing the amount of iron and chromium, with a corresponding reduction in the amount of molybdenum and vanadium, accelerates the beginning of decomposition of the ..beta.. phase. Alloying with over 4.2 percent iron and chromium lowers the upper limit at which ..omega.. phase exists (as compared with alloy VT22). No intermetallic compounds were observed in any of the alloys investigated with isothermal holding for 100 h.
