Abstract

Annealing Fe–P–Si–Mn amorphous alloys is found to produce a few nanocrystalline phases, with a strength gain no higher than that in Fe–P–Si alloys. This crystallization behavior is accounted for by the formation of two metastable silicides whose growth rates during annealing are higher than those of the equilibrium phases.
