In-situ synchrotron radiation has been used to provide direct analysis of the transformation sequences in TiNi-based shape memory
alloys during thermal cycling. The high resolution, narrow peak width Debye–Scherrer diffraction spectra enabled positive
identification and quantification of the phase transformation sequences, which is not possible through normal laboratory studies.
The results facilitate a clearer understanding of the development and influence of intermediate phases such as R or B19 on
sequential martensitic transformations. Ti50.2Ni49.8 transformed predominately via a single-step B2 ↔ B19′ transformation, although evidence of the R phase was found during cooling in every cycle. The martensitic
start temperature was depressed by ~0.6 °C per cycle, while the R-phase start temperature was found to be unaffected. Ti50Ni41Cu9 transformed through a two-step B2 ↔ B19 ↔ B19′ sequence, with the B2 → B19 transformation reaching completion prior to the
formation of any B19′. The transformation temperatures of Ti50Ni41Cu9 were found to be insensitive to thermal cycling, remaining constant over the studied cycle range. 相似文献

The effect of thermomechanical cycling under 150 MPa on the transformation behavior in a TiNi40Cu10 (at pct) alloy annealed at different temperatures was investigated using electrical resistivity measurements and differential
scanning calorimetry (DSC). It was found that thermomechanical cycling to failure could increase or decrease the transformation
temperature for specimens annealed below or above the recrystallization temperature, respectively, but there was no obvious
change of the transformation temperature for specimens annealed at the recrystallization temperature. The DSC and electrical-resistance
experiments show that the B2 ⇋ B19 and B19 ⇋ B19′ two-stage transformations occurred in cold-worked and thermomechanically
cycled specimens and that the electrical-resistance change due to the B2 → B19 transformation is larger than that of annealed
specimens. 相似文献

Single-crystal orientations of NiTi10Cu alloys were studied under incremental, cyclic compression conditions to establish
the pseudoelastic and shape memory response of this class of alloys. This material exhibits a two-step transformation involving
cubic to orthorhombic martensite (B2 → B19) followed by orthorhombic to monoclinic martensite (B19 → B19′). The transformation
parameters (shear magnitudes and directions for habit and twin planes) were determined associated with the B2 → B19 transformation.
The growth of monoclinic martensite correspondent variant pairs (CVPs) emanating from the orthorhombic structure was also
analyzed. The transformation strain for the B2 → B19 case was orientation dependent and lower than the B19 → B19′ transformation
in compression for all orientations except those near the [001] pole. The experimental results show that the critical transformation
stress is orientation dependent and is in the range 30 to 58 MPa. Orientations that exhibit lower transformation stress (or
high resolved shear stress factors, [100] and [012]) produce higher recoverable strains (as high as 4 pct), while other orientations
([011], [111], and [123]) with lower resolved shear stress factors result in recoverable strains less than 3 pct. At higher
strains, inelastic deformation develops, limiting recoverability. The recoverable strains are lower than the theoretical values
for two main reasons: the transformation is curtailed first by austenite slip and subsequently by martensite slip, and the
orthorhombic structure does not fully transform to the monoclinic martensite. 相似文献

In order to study the basic properties of pseudoelasticity of a CuAlNi single crystal, an investigation was carried out to
observe and analyze the orientation dependence of the stress-induced martensitic transformation. The transformation is the
β
1 to β′1 stress-induced transformation in a Cu-13.7 pct Al-4.18 pct Ni (wt pct) alloy. From the uniaxial tension of three groups of
differently oriented flat specimens, we obtained a series of stress-strain curves. In addition, the micrograph of martensitic
evolution was observed by utilizing a long-focus microscope. It is found that martensite appears in the shape of bands or
thin plates on the surface of the specimen. The formation of martensite is a very quick process, and martensite “jumps” out
until the specimen is completely transformed into a single variant. The experimental results are analyzed and compared to
a constitutive model proposed recently. It is found that the constitutive model cannot describe transformation hardening,
since the model ignores the surface-energy change. Nevertheless, the proposed constitutive model cannot only precisely predict
the forward and reverse transformation, but can also characterize the stress-strain hysteresis behavior during pseudoelastic
deformation under uniaxial tension loading. 相似文献

The effect of aging on transformation and deformation behavior, i.e., the transformation temperatures, shape memory behavior, and multistage martensitic and R-phase transformations, was investigated
for a Ti-50.9 at. pct Ni alloy aged at a low temperature (<600 K) rarely used for practical applications and at a high temperature
(>600 K) conventionally used for practical applications. It was found that there are many differences between aging at 473
and 673 K. The martensitic and R-phase transformation temperatures significantly varied depending on aging time and temperature.
It is found that two-stage R-phase and multistage martensitic transformations appear in both the specimens aged at 473 and
673 K, respectively. The two-stage R-phase transformation appeared by aging at 473 K over 36 ks, while the multistage martensitic
transformation (MSMT) appeared by aging at 673 K in the range of aging times between 1.2 and 36 ks. It is found that the critical
stress for slip increases with increasing aging time in specimens aged at 473 K, while that of specimens aged at 673 K increases
with increasing aging time until reaching a maximum, then it decreases with a further increase in aging time. It is also found
that the critical stress for slip is superior for specimens aged at 473 K than that for specimens aged at 673 K. It was confirmed
that dense and fine lenticular precipitates of about 10 nm in length were formed through aging, resulting in superior shape
memory characteristics. 相似文献

Stress-induced martensitic transformations have been studied in Β1 Cu Al Ni single crystals in which two martensite crystal structures can form, Β

of the Β1,Β

enabled evaluation of the critical free energy for transformation. This was small for the Β1

A study has been made of the effect of an externally applied tensile stress on Ω and Θ′ precipitate nucleation and growth
in an Al-Cu-Mg-Ag alloy and a binary Al-Cu alloy which was used as a model system. Both solutionized and solutionized and
aged conditions were studied. The mechanical properties have been measured and the microstructures have been characterized
by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The volume fraction and number density, as well as the precipitate size, have been
experimentally determined. It was found that for as-solutionized samples aged under stress, precipitation occurs preferentially
parallel to the stress axis. A threshold stress has to be exceeded before this effect can be observed. The critical stress
for influencing the precipitate habit plane is between 120 and 140 MPa for Ω and between 16 and 19 MPa for Θ′ for the aging
temperature of 160 °C. The major effect of the applied stress is on the nucleation process. The results are discussed in terms
of the role of the lattice misfit between the matrix and the precipitate nucleus. 相似文献

A Ti-49.8 at. pct Ni alloy was severely deformed at three different temperatures using equal-channel angular extrusion (ECAE).
Three deformation temperatures—room temperature (below the martensite finish temperature), 50 °C (below the austenite start
temperature), and 150 °C (above the austenite finish temperature)—were selected such that the initial deforming phase (B2
austenite or B19’ martensite) and the initial governing deformation mechanism (martensite reorientation, stress-induced martensitic
transformation, or dislocation slip in martensite) would be different. The X-ray analysis results revealed that all processed
samples mostly contained a deformed martensitic phase, regardless of the initial deforming phase and the deformation mechanism.
Although the martensite start temperature did not change, the austenite start temperature decreased significantly in all deformation
conditions, probably because of the effect of the internal stress field caused by the deformed microstructure. All deformation
conditions led to an increase in the strength levels and some deterioration of shape-memory characteristics. However, a subsequent
low-temperature annealing treatment significantly improved pseudoelastic strain levels while preserving the ultrahigh strength
levels. The sample deformed at room temperature followed by the low-temperature annealing resulted in the most promising strength
and shape-memory characteristics under compression, such that a 5.3 pct shape-memory strain at a 2200 MPa strength level and
a 3.3 pct pseudoelastic strain at a 1900 MPa strength level were achieved. The differences between the strength levels and
the shape-memory characteristics after severe deformation at different temperatures were attributed to the different amounts
of plastic deformation and the resulting deformation textures, since at each deformation temperature the deformation mechanism
was different. It is concluded that the severe marforming using ECAE could easily improve strength levels of NiTi alloys while
preserving the shape-memory and pseudoelasticity (PE) characteristics and, thus, improve the thermomechanical fatigue behavior.
However, lower deformation temperatures are necessary to hinder formation of macroshear bands, and ECAE angles larger than
90 deg should be used to reduce the amount of strain applied in one pass. 相似文献

Experimental information on the transformation temperatures and the thermodynamic properties of the near-equiatomic TiNi alloys
is analyzed. Special attention is paid to the estimation of T
0 temperature from experimental M
s
and A
f
temperatures. The properties of the TiNi low-temperature phase (B19′) are evaluated from selected experimental data by using
a two-sublattice model. The Ti-Ni phase diagram including the B19′ phase is then calculated. It reveals that the equiatomic
TiNi parent phase (B2) remains stable from high temperatures until 370 K, and then the B19′ phase becomes thermodynamically
stable as a linear compound under 370 K. Thermodynamic quantities such as the T
0 temperature and transformation enthalpy are also calculated and compared with experimental data. Further, the M
s
temperature is predicted and compared with data from different sources. 相似文献

The B2↔B19↔B19′ two-stage martensitic transformation in a Ti50Ni40Cu10 alloy has been investigated by electrical resistivity, DSC, X-ray diffraction and internal friction measurements. The shear modulus of B19 martensite has an unusually low value over a broad temperature range between the two shear modulus minima. The B2↔B19 transformation is thus proposed to proceed under the condition of deep shear modulus softening. X-ray diffraction results show that the B19↔B19′ is an incomplete transformation and that the monoclinic angle β of B19′ martensite will increasing with decreasing temperature. This indicates that the B19↔B19′ transformation has the characteristic of the continuously monoclinic distortion of B19′ martensite, which is similar to that of the continuously rhombohedral distortion of R-phase. The opposite behavior observed in electrical resistivity and DSC measurements for B2↔B19 and B19↔B19′ transformations is also discussed. 相似文献

The formation of γ′ particles in an as-cast nickel alloy at barothermal treatment temperatures of 1235, 1260, and 1320°C and
a pressure of 175 MPa for an action time of 2 h (isobar-isothermal holding (IIH)) is studied by quantitative metallography
using optical and electron microscopy and image processing computer programs. An analysis of images of the dendritic structure
of the alloy, which is formed by the morphology and sizes of γ′ particles, demonstrates an increase in the degree of homogeneity
of the alloy with the IIH temperature. The concentration of γ′ particles is determined in the initial alloy and after barothermal
treatment (BTT) at temperatures of 1235, 1260, and 1320°C, and the volume fraction of the γ′ phase is found to significantly
decrease as the IIH temperature increases. An activation mechanism is suggested for the formation of the nucleation centers
of γ′ particles in the γ solid solution, and the activation energy of the dissolution/coalescence of γ′ precipitates is determined.
The fraction of nonequilibrium γ′ particles is determined in the material in the initial state and after BTT at three IIH
temperatures. The precipitation of γ′ particles is characterized by a bimodal character with the formation of nanoparticles
in the initial material and upon BTT at temperatures of 1235 and 1260°C. 相似文献

The influence of solution-treatment temperature on the martensitic phase transformations observed in IMI 550 (Ti-4Al-4Mo-2Sn-0.5Si)
has been investigated. When solution treatment is conducted at temperatures above 1233 K, a hexagonal martensite (α′) is formed on rapid cooling. However solution treatment at temperatures between 1233 and 1123 K results in the formation
of an orthorhombic martensite (α″) on rapid cooling. Finally, below 1123 K, the β phase is stable—no martensitic transformation occurs on rapid cooling. This transition from α′ → α
primary + (α′ + β
retained) → α
primary + (α″ + β
retained) → α
primary + β
metastable + ω, with decreasing solution-treatment temperature, is shown to be a result of alloy partitioning during solution treatment.
Crystallographic analysis indicates that the transition in the martensite crystal structure with decreasing solution-treatment
temperature is related to chemical short-range ordering (CSRO) in the high-temperature β phase. 相似文献

In the previous paper, it was reported that isothermal heat treatment of a commercial Japanese 0.40 pct C-Ni-Cr-Mo ultrahigh
strength steel (AISI 4340 type) at 593 K for a short time followed by water quenching, in which a mixed structure of 25 vol
pct lower bainite and 75 vol pct martensite is produced, results in the improvement of low temperature mechanical properties
(287 to 123 K). The purpose of this paper is to study whether above new heat treatment will still be effective in commercial
practice for improving low temperature mechanical properties of the ultrahigh strength steel when applied to a commercial
Japanese 0.40 pct C-Cr-Mo ultrahigh strength steel which is economical because it lacks the expensive nickel component (AISI
4140 type). At and above 203 K this new heat treatment, as compared with the conventional 1133 K direct water quenching treatment,
significantly improved the strength, tensile ductility, and notch toughness of the 0.40 pct C-Cr-Mo ultrahigh strength steel.
At and above 203 K the new heat treatment also produced superior fracture ductility and notch toughness results at similar
strength levels as compared to those obtained by usingγ α′ repetitive heat treatment for the same steel. However, the new heat treatment remarkably decreased fracture ductility and
notch toughness of the 0.40 pct C-Cr-Mo ultrahigh strength steel below 203 K, and thus no significant improvement in the mechanical
properties was noticeable as compared with the properties produced by the conventional 1133 K direct water quenching treatment
and theγ α′ repetitive heat treatment. This contrasts with the fact that the new heat treatment, as compared with the conventional 1133
K direct water quenching treatment and theγ α′ repetitive heat treatment, dramatically improved the notch toughness of the 0.40 pct C-Ni-Cr-Mo ultrahigh strength steel,
providing a better combination of strength and ductility throughout the 287 to 123 K temperature range. The difference in
the observed mechanical properties between the above two ultrahigh strength steels is discussed on the basis of the effect
of nickel content, fracture profile, and so forth. 相似文献

The damping characteristics of Ti50Ni49.5Fe0.5 and Ti50Ni40Cu10 ternary shape memory alloys (SMAs) have been systematically studied by resonant-bar testing and internal friction (IF) measurement.
The damping capacities of the B19′ martensite and the B2 parent phase for these ternary alloys are higher than those for the
Ti50Ni50 binary alloy. The lower yield stress and shear modulus of these ternary alloys are considered to be responsible for their
higher damping capacity. For the same ternary alloy, the B19/B19′ martensite and R phase also have a higher damping capacity
than does the B2 parent phase. In the forward transformations of B2 → R, R → 519′, and B2 → 519′ for Ti50Ni50 and Ti50Ni49.5Fe0.5 alloys, the damping capacity peaks appearing in the resonant-bar test are attributed to both stress-induced transformation
and stress-induced twin accommodation. The lattice-softening phenomenon can promote the stress-induced transformation and
enhance the damping capacity peaks. The Ti50Ni40Cu10 alloy had an unusually high plateau of damping capacity in the B19 martensite, which is considered to have arisen from the
easy movement of twin boundaries of B19 martensite due to its inherently very low elastic modulus. The peaks appearing in
the IF test for the Ti50Ni40Cu10 alloy are mainly attributed to the thermal-induced transformation due to T ⊋ 0 during the test. 相似文献

The alloying behavior of iron in B-doped Ni3Al was studied using optical and transmission electron microscopy for microstructural analysis and tensile testing for mechanical
property evaluation. The aluminide dissolves less than 15 at. pct iron. At iron levels of 15 pct, depending on the aluminum
level, formation of both transformed B2 phase (β′) and disordered fee phase (γ) is observed. The phase relationships in the aluminide containing 10 pct iron were studied in
detail by quenching from temperatures below 1370 °C. Tensile properties of nickel-iron aluminides were determined as functions
of iron content and test temperature. The tensile results are discussed in terms of solid-solution hardening, atomic size
misfit, and precipitation of γ, β′, and carbides. 相似文献

The effect of a ductile γ′-Ni3Al phase on the room-temperature ductility, temperature-dependent yield strength, and creep resistance of β-NiAl was investigated. Room-temperature tensile ductility of up to 9 pct was observed in directionally solidified β/γ′ Ni-30 at. pct Al alloys, whereas the ductility of directionally solidified (DS), single-phase [001] β-NiAl was negligible. The enhancement in ductility was attributed to a combination of slip transfer from the ductile γ′ to the brittle β phase and extrinsic toughening mechanisms such as crack blunting, deflection, and bridging. As in single-phase Ni3Al, the temperature-dependent yield strength of these two-phase alloys increased with temperature with a peak at approximately
850 K. The creep strength of the β/γ′ alloys in the temperature range 1000 to 1200 K was found to be comparable to that of monolithic β-NiAl. A creep strengthening phase needs to be incorporated in the β/γ′ microstructure to enhance the elevated temperature mechanical properties. 相似文献

The phase transformations of homogeneous Fe-N alloys of nitrogen contents from 10 to 26 at. pct were investigated by means
of X-ray diffraction analysis upon aging in the temperature range from 373 to 473 K. It was found that precipitation of α″-Fe16N2 below 443 K does not only occur upon aging of supersaturated α (ferrite) and α′ (martensite), but also upon transformation of γ′-Fe4N1-z
and ɛ-Fe2N1-x
(<20 at. pct N). No α″ was observed to develop upon aging of γ(austenite). Therefore, it is proposed that γ′ is a stable phase at temperatures down to (at least) 373 K. Phase formation upon annealing at low temperatures is apparently
governed by the (difficult) nucleation and (slow) growth of new Fe-N phases: α″ forms as a precursor for α because of slow nitrogen diffusion, and nitrogen-enriched ɛ develops as a precursor for γ′ because of a nucleation barrier. 相似文献

The tensile deformation behavior of mechanically-stabilized austenite is investigated in Fe-Mn binary alloys. A 30 pct thickness
reduction by rolling at 673 K (above the Af temperature) largely suppresses the austenite (γ) to hcp epsilon martensite (ε) transformation in 17Mn and 25Mn steels. However,
the deformation behavior of the mechanically stabilized austenite in the two alloys differs significantly. In 25Mn steel,
the onset of plastic deformation is due to the stress-induced γ→ ε transformation and results in a positive temperature dependence of the yield strength. The uniform elongation is enhanced
by the γ → ε transformation during deformation. In 17Mn steel, bccα′ martensite is deformation-induced along with e and a plateau region similar to Lüders band deformation appears at the beginning
of the stress-strain curve. The mechanical stabilization of austenite also suppresses the intergranular fracture of 17Mn steel
at low temperatures.
