Abstract
The martensite ⇌ austenite transformations were investigated in Fe-Ni-Co alloys containing about 65 wt pct Fe and up to 15 wt pct Co. A change in morphology of martensite from plate-like to lath-type occurred with increasing cobalt content; this change in morphology correlates with the disappearance of the Invar anomaly in the austenite. The martensite-to-austenite reverse transformation differed depending on martensite morphology. Reversion of plate-like martensite was found to occur by simple disintegration of the martensite platelets. Reverse austenite formed from lath-type martensite was not retained when quenched from much aboveA s, with microcracks forming during theM→γ→M transformation.
