A phenomenon occurring in this substance can be described with the Nishiyama-Wasserman or the Kurdjumov-Sachs ori- entations.

Two forms of this substance lend their names to two phases whose interconversion displays thermal hysteresis in the shape memory effect. Temperature transitions in this material are often displayed on CCT and TTT diagrams. The Bain model describes how rapid cooling of this substance causes a diffusionless phase transition in which this substance converts from a face-centered cubic to a tetragonal crystal structure. The HSLA form of this substance does not contain the eutectoid pearlite, thus lacking the alternate layering of the alpha phase of its primary constituent and cementite. The aforementioned phase transition in this substance converts austenite to martensite. Adding 10.5% chromium to this alloy mixture allows it to resist corrosion. For 10 points, name this alloy of iron and carbon that comes in a "stainless" variety.
