Abs., vol. 44, 1950, p. 10641. Fe-C-N alloys containing up to 1.5 N2 and 1.25% C were prepared by cementation of 0.5-mm. wire of mild steel heated to 810° in a mixture of CO2, H2, and acetonitrile for N2 content up to 0.6% and a slight addition of NH3 for N2 contents 0.6-1.5%. These alloys showed the reversible thermomagnetic transformations of austenite in cementite Fe3C and nitride Fe4N. This eutectoid transformation begins at 595°, as in the Fe-N alloys, but it is completed at a lower temperature than the Fe-N and Fe-C alloys. PONGRACZ, A. See abs. 3373. PORAI-KOSHITS, E. A.
