Abstract
Below a heating rate of 10 degreesC/s, the reverse transformation (alpha' - -> gamma) of a low carbon Fe-13%Cr-7%Ni-3%Si martensitic stainless steel oc curs by diffusion, whereas it occurs in a diffusionless manner above 10 deg reesC/s. The amount of retained austenite at room temperature is proportion al to both the volume fraction of reversed austenite and its stability.
