Ni_(54)Mn_(25)Ga_(15)Al_6高温形状记忆合金的微观组织和相变行为(英文)

研究Ni54Mn25Ga15Al6高温形状记忆合金的微观组织、马氏体相变特性、力学性能和形状记忆效应。通过与Ni54Mn25Ga21合金对比,分析添加第四组元Al对Ni-Mn-Ga合金性能的影响。结果表明:Ni54Mn25Ga15Al6合金为单一的四方结构非调制马氏体相并呈片状的马氏体孪晶板条形貌。该合金的马氏体相变开始温度超过190°C,具有发展成为高温形状记忆合金的潜力。在Ni-Mn-Ga合金中添加Al会降低马氏体相变温度,这主要归因于Al添加引入的晶格尺寸因素的改变。添加Al元素能有效提高合金的强度和塑性,但降低合金的形状记忆性能。     

Structural transition of Ni-Mn-Ga ferromagnetic shape memory alloy particles prepared by ball milling

The size, crystal structure and phase transformation of Ni49.8Mn28.sGa21.7 alloy particles prepared by planetary ball milling （PBM） and vibration ball milling （VBM） were investigated by SEM, XRD and DSC. The results show that the particles milled by PBM for 4 h exhibit irregular polyhedron, with the size distribution between 5 pm and 40 pm. These particles present disordered fct structure with no phase transformation behaviour. When annealed at 600℃ for 1 h, the crystal structure of the particles evolves from disordered fct to Heusler completely. The particles milled by VBM for 4 h exhibit flaky shape, with the size distribution from 3 μm to 30μm. The particles present disordered fcc structure with no phase transformation behaviour. However the crystal structure of these particles doesn＇t transform from disordered fcc to Heusler completely aider annealing at 600 ℃ for 1 h, for the severe lattice distortion induced in the VBM process is not eliminated entirely.

运用X光衍射的方法研究了稀土元素Tb对形状记忆合金Ni50Mn29Ga21金相组织的影响.结果表明,稀土元素Tb的加入可以明显地减小合金的晶粒尺寸,提高马氏体在合金中的含量,但是也使得合金的磁感生应变在经历一段上升后发生回落.     

一种具有高形状回复率的双相 Ni-Mn-Ga-Gd 高温形状记忆合金

本文通过弯曲试验研究了双相Ni58Mn25Ga16.9Gd0.1合金的形状记忆效应和回复率。结果表明,该合金具有优异的形状回复能力。在预变形4.6%加热后,可以得到86%的形状回复率,高于已报道的双相Ni-Mn-Ga合金。这是因为Gd掺杂提高了γ 相的临界滑移应力,使γ 相不易发生变形。     

Phase Transformation Behaviors and Effects of Terbium in Polycrystalline Ni-Mn-Ga Magnetic Shape Memory Alloys

The phase transformation behaviors of two kinds of magnetic shape memory alloys NisoMn25 x Ga25-x and Ni50 Mn29Ga21-x Tbx were studied. When the composition of Ni in these alloys was constant, increasing Mn and reducing Ga contents make martensitic transformation temperatures rise obviously. Simultaneously, thermal hysteresis of phase transformation reduce but Curie temperature una|ters. When terbium was added, phase transformation temperature went up further and Curie temperature kept constant. The alloys still show strong ferromagnetism and properties of thermoelastic martensite phase transformation.     

Effects of Sm on Phase Transformation in Ni-Mn-Ga Alloys

The effects of small amount additions of Sm on the martensitic transition and magnetic phase transition of polycrystalline Ni-Mn-Ga alloys were investigated. The experimental results show that the Sm doped alloys also undergo a thermal-elastic martensitic transformation and reverse transformation during cooling and heating process and the addition of Sm decreases the martensitic transformation temperature and Curie temperature in different degree respectively. Ni-Mn-Ga alloys of adding Sm still possess Heusler structure, but their crystal lattice parameters are modified slightly. The addition of a proper amount of Sm does not basically decrease Tc of the alloy when avoiding the appearance of second phase. In addition, the doped alloys have favorable toughness because of grain refinement of Sm.

Effects of Tb addition on the microstructure and properties of a Ni-Mn-Ga ferromagnetic shape memory alloy

The effects of terbium addition on the microstructures and properties of polycrystalline Ni_48.8Mn_29.7Ga_21.5 alloy (numbers indicate at.%) were investigated. The results show that the grain size of Ni-Mn-Ga alloy decreases significantly with the addition of Tb, and Tb elements are found to exist in the grain boundary region and form a (Ni, Tb)-rich quaternary phase. The compressive ductility and fracture toughness increased with the addition of Tb. The improvement of mechanical properties and the slight change of martensitic transformation temperature and the magnetic properties of the Tb-added alloys are discussed in terms of the modification of microstructures with the addition of Tb.     

Effect of γ phase on mechanical behavior and detwinning evolution of directionally solidified Ni-Mn-Ga alloys under uniaxial compression

Specimens with single-phase martensite, net-like γ/martensite mixed structure and lamella-likeγ/martensite mixed structure were designed to investigate the effect of the γ phase on the mechanical behavior and the detwinning of non-modulated(NM) martensitic variant in Ni-rich Ni-Mn-Ga alloys under uniaxial compression. It can be found the existence of the γ phase significantly enhances the compressive stresses, and the net-like γ phase specimen presents a higher value of compressive strain than that of the lamella-like γ phase specimen. Especially, the detwinning plateau of the lamella-like γ phase specimen is almost invisible due to the martensite colonies with low Schmid factors. Finally, according to the calculation of deformation gradient tensor, we found that the tensors along compression direction(εzz) of net-like γ phase/martensite mixed structure specimen and single-phase martensite specimen are lower than that of the specimen with lamella-like γ phase/martensite mixed structure, which well explained the detwinning strain for these specimens. The present study not only highlights the role ofγ phase on the mechanical behavior, but also provides more guidelines for the mechanical training of Ni-Mn-Ga shape memory alloys.
