Abstract
The phase composition and the morphology of structures formed as a result of isothermal holds in the range of aging temperatures of hardened alloy Fe-28% Mn, 8.5% Al-1% C-1.25% S are studied. A diagram of the decomposition of initial austenite is plotted starting with the early stages and ending with the moment when the system attains the equilibrium state.
