Thermophysical properties of liquid metal alloys play a crucial role in the variety of processes. Present work reports experimental investigations of two new transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) steels. A classical maximum bubble pressure technique is successfully used to measure surface tension and density of the liquid TRIP‐steel samples in the temperatures range of 1500–1800 °C. Experiments are performed in two different measurement cells from TU Freiberg and Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique (CEA), Cadarache. Capillaries are made of zirconia partially stabilized with yttrium oxide, and the samples are molten in Al 2 O 3 crucibles. Measurements are conducted under the argon atmosphere. Surface tension of the investigated samples rises up to 1700 °C and further remains the same. Density of the new steels obtained in this study is in good agreement with the previously reported values for Fe–Cr alloys with similar Cr content. Density of the alloy is estimated as 875 488–11 885 × T (±218.85 kg m −3 ) for a 15%Cr alloy and 796 042–06 897 × T (±199 kg m −3 ) for a 19%Cr alloy.
