Investigation on Ce Addition on Microstructure and Martensitic Transformation of a Ti51Ni49 Shape Memory Alloy

Article Preview

Abstract:

The effect of rare earth element Ce addition on the microstructure and martensitic transformation behavior of Ti51Ni49 shape memory alloy was investigated by scanning electronic microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results show that the microstructure of TiNiCe ternary alloy consists of Ti2Ni phase, CeNi phase and the matrix. One-step martensitic transformation is observed in quenched TiNiCe ternary alloys, which is the same as that in quenched TiNi binary alloys. The martensitic transformation temperatures of Ti-rich TiNi alloy hardly increase with Ce addition.
