The Use of Phase Transformations in the Design of Alloy Steel

MRS Online Proceedings Library volume 21, pages713–721(1983)Cite this article

Abstract

This paper is intended to describe and illustrate the use of phase transformations in the design of new alloy steels. The general method of alloy design is described. Two examples are discussed: the development of new ferritic structural steels for use at cryogenic temperature, and the development of ‘dual phase’ steels for automotive use.
