Ordering in ternary BCC alloys applied to the Al-Fe-Mn system

• TWIP (TWinning Induced Plasticity) steels are attracting a lot of attention due to their combination of strength and ductility. In a previous work [1] (B. Lindahl, M. Selleby, Calphad 43 (2013) 86-93) a thermodynamic assessment of the Al-Fe-Mn system, which forms the basis of TWIP steels, was presented. The previous assessment treated the A2/B2 order-disorder transformation in the bcc phase using a two-sublattice model. In the present work a four-sublattice model has been used in order to also be able to describe the transition into the ordered DO3 compound that occurs at lower temperatures. pair interaction energies for the Fe-Mn system are evaluated which prove crucial to the extrapolations into the Al-Fe-Mn system. Along with this various aspects of modeling chemical ordering using the Calphad approach are discussed. Equations for determining the ternary compound energies from binary pair interactions energies are presented and equations for determining the parameter values from the ordered parameters are derived.
