Retained Austenite: Meaning and Transformation | Steel | Metallurgy

In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Meaning of Retained Austenite 2. Advantages and Disadvantages of Retained Austenite 3. Methods for Transformation. Meaning of Retained Austenite: Austenite transforms to martensite between Ms and Mf temperatures as it is essentially an athermal trans­formation. However, this transformation never goes to completion, i.e. 100% martensite (Mf temperature line is illustrated as dotted [...]
