Abstract:

This paper studies the electric-pulse applied in the solidification process of the FeMnSiCrNi shape memory alloy, by applying different pulse frequency and polarity on the FeMnSiCrNi shape memory alloy to improve the shape memory effects. The results show : electric-pulse was conducive to FeMnSiCrNi alloys grain refinement, the alloy can improve the shape memory effect of Compression deformation, the absolute shape recovery rate is improved from 2% to 3.2% which is not treated by the electric-pulse ; when the liquid metal was connected with the anode of the pulse, it is easy to get the columnar grain structure and the column spacing is smaller; when the liquid metal was connected with the cathode of the pulse, the column spacing is larger; Columnar grain is conducive to FeMnSiCrNi alloy specimens compressed shape recovery, it has the smaller column spacing, yet the shape recovery rate is higher; equiaxed is favor in bending back, columnar crystals impede the bending response.
