Abstract
If a single-phase alloy is rapidly cooled such that insufficient time is available for an equilibrium transformation to occur, the high-temperature phase may be retained to room temperature or may undergo a massive or martensitic reaction. The massive or martensitic product develops without a composition change and usually has a crystal structure approximating an adjacent equilibrium phase. The characteristics of a massive transformation are intermediate between the equilibrium reaction in which long-
