Abstract: | New measurements of the α/γ equilibrium in the Fe-Cr system are presented and all the relevant experimental information now
available, including thermodynamic data, is evaluated using a regular solution model. The two-phase field is calculated in
good agreement with most of the experimental measurements. The point of minimum is obtained at 1119 K and 7.0 at. pct Cr (6.6
wt pct Cr) and the maximum solubility in austenite is 11.9 at. pct Cr (11.2 wt pct Cr). The thermodynamic quantities describing
the effect of chromium on the relative stability of ferrite and austenite are similar to those for manganese. The comparison
is based upon a new evaluation of the Fe-Mn system. In particular, low chromium contents are found to have a stabilizing effect
on austenite up to a temperature of 1675 K. |
