摘要
The constitutional phases and microstructure of Ni47Ti44Nb9 alloy have been studied by means of optical microscopy, electron probe X-ray microanalyses (EPMA) and X-ray diffraction. It has been shown that the microstructure of the experimental alloy consists of three phases: TiNi matrix, niobium-rich phase and Ti3(Ni, Nb)2 compound. The Nb-rich phase is determined to be beta-Nb with hcc structure containing a small amount of Ni and Ti. The beta-Nb is a soft phase which forms a eutectic structure with TiNi phase during solidification. After hot working the soft beta-Nb phase is dispersed in TiNi matrix and gives rise to a wide transformation hysteresis in the alloy. The Ti3(Ni,Nb)2 is a harder and embrittlemental phase.
