摘要
The microstructure and properties of a precipitation-hardenable Ni-48Ti-25Pd (at. pct) shape memory alloy have been investigated as a function of various aging conditions. Both the hardness and martensitic transformation temperatures increased with increasing aging time up to 100 hours at 673 K (400 A degrees C), while no discernable differences were observed after heat treatment at 823 K (550 A degrees C), except for a slight decrease in hardness. For aging at 673 K (400 A degrees C), these effects were attributed to the formation of nano-scale precipitates, while precipitation was absent in the 823 K (550 A degrees C) heat-treated specimens. The precipitation-strengthened alloy exhibited stable pseudoelastic behavior and load-biased-shape memory response with little or no residual strains. The precipitates had a monoclinic base-centered structure, which is the same structure as the P-phase recently reported in Ni(Pt)-rich NiTiPt alloys. 3D atom probe analysis revealed that the precipitates were slightly enriched in Ni and deficient in Pd and Ti as compared with the bulk alloy. The increase in martensitic transformation temperatures and the superior dimensional stability during shape memory and pseudoelastic testing are attributed to the fine precipitate phase and its effect on matrix chemistry, local stress state because of the coherent interface, and the ability to effectively strengthen the alloy against slip.
