Thermodynamic Assessment of Liquid Mn-Fe-C System by Unified Interaction Parameter Model.

Solubility Parameter of Fluids from Molecular Thermodynamic Model

The modified square well Potential is combined with perturbed-hard-trimer-chain (PHTC) EOS to predict the solubility parameter of several fluids including alkanes, refrigerants and molten polymers. The performance of the proposed model has been evaluated by predicting the solubility parameter of 12 hydrocarbons,3 refrigerants, and 12 polymers. From the 263 data points for hydrocarbons and refri...

Kinetics of Austenite Recrystallization during the Annealing of Cold-rolled Fe-Mn-Al-C Steel

In the current study, the recrystallization behavior of 75% cold-rolled Fe-22Mn-10Al-1.4C steel during annealing at 750, 770, 790, 810, and 830°C was studied. X-ray diffraction patterns and optical microscopy were used to characterize microstructures. The Vickers Micro-hardness test was used to characterize recrystallization kinetics during annealing. Johnson-Mehl-Avrami-Kolmogorov (JMAK) model...

Growth and Magnetic Oscillatory Exchange Coupling of Mn/Fe(001) and Fe/Mn/Fe(001)

The magnetic ordering and the interlayer exchange coupling in Mn and Fe/Mn wedge structures grown epitaxially on Fe(001) whisker substrates were investigated using scanning electron microscopy with polarization analysis (SEMPA). In bare Mn/Fe(001) samples, the magnetization of the top Mn layer is collinear with the Fe magnetization, and oscillates between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic ali...

Peritectic phase transformation in the Fe–Mn and Fe–C system utilizing simulations with phase-field method

The present investigation focuses on the solidification of peritectic binary alloys in the systems Fe–Mn and Fe–C by utilizing phase-field simulations. Isothermal and directional solidification conditions were simulated with this approach and the following aspects were investigated: the phases evolution during the peritectic transformation close to the peritectic temperature for the Fe–Mn alloy...
