Popis: Since its discovery by one of us in 1883, the material now universally known as manganese steel, that is the iron-manganese alloy containing about 12 to 14 per cent. manganese and 1⋅10 to 1⋅25 per cent. carbon has, on account of its many remarkable properties, been the subject of many researches. 2. The investigation of its magnetic behaviour in connection with thermal and mechanical treatment has taken a prominent place among them, as this method of investigation, perhaps more than any other, promised to give an insight into the constitution of steel alloys, and accordingly to show how their properties might be influenced in any desired direction. Manganese steel has not only been important in itself, but by reason of the light it has thrown upon the laws relating generally to steel alloys.
