Abstract
Influence of magnetic transformation on volume diffusion, dislocation diffusion, and grain boundary diffusion in high-purity iron (Fe) has been studied. The intensity of the influence on volume diffusion is found to be proportional to the change of magnetization of the Fe matrix around the first and second shells of the diffusing atom. The influence of magnetic transformation on the grain boundary diffusion and dislocation diffusion in Fe is found to be much larger than that on the volume diffusion.
