These elements are grouped as austenite-forming, ferrite-forming, carbide-forming and nitride-forming elements. Austenite-forming elements The elements C, Ni and Mn are the most important ones in this group. Sufficiently large amounts of Ni or Mn render a steel austenitic even at room temperature.
From about 18 to 20 % nickel content, the structure becomes austenitic, with the limit between stable and unstable austenite depending on the wall thickness of the part and on other alloy elements (Cu, Cr, Mn) added. Fig. 1
