Abstract
This work demonstrates the effect of aging temperature on transformation path is primarily dependent on the size of Ni4Ti3 precipitates in a Ni-rich Ni51.7Ti47.3Ta1 (at%) alloy. B2↔R↔B19' and B2↔B19' transformations are found in the 773 and 873 K-aged samples, separately, that contain large Ni4Ti3 precipitates (average length exceeding 150 nm). The sample aged at 673 K undergoes single-stage R-phase transformation due to the suppression of coherent Ni4Ti3 nanoprecipitates on B19' martensite. In this sample, with the application of external stress, B2 → B19' transformation takes place at room temperature resulting in medium superelasticity (recovery strain is 4 %) and elastocaloric effect (adiabatic temperature change is −9.4 K). Ultrahigh cyclic stability for these functional properties is probably due to the strengthening effect of Ni4Ti3 nanoprecipitates and small transformation strain.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Alloys and Compounds is intended to serve as an international medium for the publication of work on solid materials comprising compounds as well as alloys. Its great strength lies in the diversity of discipline which it encompasses, drawing together results from materials science, solid-state chemistry and physics.
