The tensile tests and the compressive tests with respect to as-cast NiTi SMA were performed to study its mechanical properties of fracture. The microanalysis of as-cast NiTi SMA as well as its fractured samples was performed so as to better understand microstructure evolution and fracture behavior of NiTi SMA. Under tensile loading, the as-cast NiTi SMA shows higher plasticity and is characterized by ductile fracture at 750℃, but it demonstrates poorer plasticity and is characterized by cleavage fracture as well as transcrystalline fracture at room temperature and -100 ℃. Under compressive loading at -100 ~C, the as-cast NiTi SMA is characterized by shear fracture where the normal to the shearing fracture surface inclines about 45° to the compressive axis, and belongs to cleavage fracture where the cracks exoand via transcrvstalline fracture.展开更多

And the influences of electrochemical state on passive behavior, failure mechanism of passive film and corrosion?wear synergy were emphatically analyzed. The corrosion?wear analysis of the alloy was fulfilled by methods of mass loss, electrochemical testing and scanning electron microscope (SEM). It can be observed that the cathodic shift of open circuit potential and three order of magnitude increase of current density can be obtained during corrosion?wear process. Total corrosion?wear loss increases with increasing applied potential, confirming the synergy between wear and corrosion. High polarisation potential results in low coefficient of friction and high corrosion rate. The relative contribution of pure mechanical wear to total material loss deceases obviously with the increase of potential from open circuit potential to 0.9 V during corrosion?wear. Contributions of wear-induced-corrosion and corrosion-induced-wear are significant especially at higher potentials.展开更多
