Object of investigation is highly alloyed binary Fe-Mn alloys which in austenitic state are characterized with different stacking fault energy (SFE). Experimental results using the internal friction and X-Ray methods are obtained for the martensitic non isothermal transformation upon cooling and heating. It was determined that mainly the structural characteristics of the alloys define the type of the possible transformation mechanisms and the products of the martensitic reaction. The role of the SFE for the mechanisms of formation and growth of the martensite phase and the relation between the micro-structural parameters of the solid solution and the mechanism of non isothermal martensitic transformations is shown. On the basis of the existing models of dynamic relaxation associated with phase transformations, here are pivotal conclusions about the characteristics of the non-diffusion mechanism of transformation into a low SFE.
