The self-diffusion of 59Fe in 0.4 to 48.8at%Mn alloys was studied, at 850 to 1250C, by using a modified Gruzin residual activity method. It was found that the self-diffusion coefficients (table 113) satisfied an Arrhenius relationship, and were a function of the Mn content. The pre-exponential factor and the activation energy depended linearly upon the Mn concentration (table 114).
