Thermodynamical prediction of Ms in ternary Fe-Mn-Si alloys is established. The fcc(γ)-hcp(ε) martensitic transformation in Fe-Mn-Si is a semi-thermoelastic and the nucleation process does not strongly depend on soft mode. Nucleation occurs directly through an overlapping of stacking fault rather than pole mechanism, and it is suggested that stacking fault energy (SFE) is the main factor controlling nucleation. Based on the phenomenological theory of martensite crystallography, a shuffle on (0001)hcp plane is required when d111 ≠d0002. The derived principal strain in Bain distortion is smaller, i.e., more reasonable than the val ues given by Christian. Alloying elements strengthening the austenite, lowering SFE of γ phase and reducing T temperature may be beneficial to shape memory effect (SME) of Fe-Mn-Si based alIoys. Accordingly, Fe- Mn-Si-RE and Fe-Mn-Si-Cr-N (or Fe-Mn-Si-Ni-Cr-N) are worthy to be recommended as shape memory materials with improved SME.展开更多

The results indicated that pre-strain increases the reverse martensitic transformation temperature (As) and hysteresis (As-Ms).

The results showed that when the annealing temperature was 673 K, both the Af and the Ms temperatures increased appreciably as the prestrain increased, the A. temperature increased slightly with increasing prestrain; the resistivity difference at 303 K between the heating and cooling curve also increased with increasing prestrain, which agreed with the recovery strain. The shape memory effect in Fe-Mn-Si-Cr-Ni shape memory alloy is caused by the stress-inducedγ→ε martensite transformation and its reverse transformation. When the prestrain was 10%, the Ms temperature decreased remarkably as the annealing temperature increased.展开更多

However, the T_(0) of current strain glass systems is still very low, limiting their potential applications and experimental studies. In this paper, we reported two new strain glass systems with relatively high T_(0). In Ti_(50)Au_(50-x)Cr_(x) alloys, the strain glass appears at x = 25, and exhibits a T_(0) of 251 K, while in Ti_(50)Pt_(50-y)Fey alloys, the strain glass takes place at y = 30, and shows a T_(0) of 272 K. Both of them are comparable with the highest T_(0) value reported so far. Moreover, the phase diagrams of main strain glass systems in Ti-based alloys were summarized. It is found that the influence of the martensitic transformation temperature of the host alloy on the T_(0) of the strain glass is limited. This work may help to design new strain glass systems with higher T_(0) above ambient temperature.展开更多

In artificial seawater (3.5%NaCl) and physiological solution (5%NaCl+0.1%H 2O 2), the results show that the alloying elements influence the corrosion behavior of Ni Ti Nb alloys. Generally, Zr improves the corrosion resistance of Ni Ti Nb alloy, Cr reduces its corrosion resistance and V does not change the property. In order to investigate the reason of the difference,the relation of the phase components and corrosion resistance of Ni Ti Nb based shape memory alloys were studied by element analysis and SEM.
