Abstract

A quasi-equilibrium temperaturevs carbon-concentration phase diagram of rapidly solidified pseudo-binary (Fe0.65Mn0.35)0.83Al0.17-xC alloys was determined after heat treatment in the 823 to 1323 K range. Lattice parameter relationships of rapidly solidified (Fe0.65Mn0.35)0.83Al0.17-xC and Fe3Al-xC alloys in the ferrite, austenite, and perovskite carbide phases were established as a function of the carbon concentration. This study shows that when a high concentration of carbon is present in the alloys a perovskiteL′l2 carbide is formed directly from the rapid solidification process. It is established also in this study that the carbon atom contribution to the lattice parameter increase in the fcc-based cubic crystal is greater in the disorderedγ-phase than in the ordered (L′l2 structure)κ-phase.
