The structural changes during reversible martensitic transformation of near-equiatomic NiTi alloys can best be studied in TEM at around room temperature. Ternary additions like Mn offer this possibility by suppressing the Ms temperature below RT. Besides the stable intermetallic phases (Ti2Ni, TiNi, TiNi3) several metastable phases with various crystallographic structures (rhombohedral, hexagonal, monoclinic, cubic) have also been reported to precipitate due to suitable annealing procedures.TiNi:Mn samples with 0.9 and 1.3 at% Mn were arc melted in argon atmosphere and homogenized at 948 °C for 72 hours in high vacuum in an infrared furnace. After spark cutting slices of 0.2 mm, TEM specimens were prepared by electrochemical polishing with the twin-jet technique in methanol - perchloric acid electrolyte. The TEM study was carried out in a JEOL 200 CX analytical electron microscope.In this paper a new intermetallic phase is reported which has been observed in both samples by TEM during the martensitic transformation process.

Shape memory effect is a peculiar property exhibited by certain alloy systems, and shape memory alloys are recognized to be smart materials. These alloys have important ability to recover the original shape of material after deformation, and they are used as shape memory elements in devices due to this property. The shape memory effect is facilitated by a displacive transformation known as martensitic transformation. Shape memory effect refers to the shape recovery of materials resulting from martensite to austenite transformation when heated above reverse transformation temperature after deforming in the martensitic phase. These alloys also cycle between two certain shapes with changing temperature.Martensitic transformations occur with cooperative movement of atoms by means of lattice invariant shears on a {110} - type plane of austenite matrix which is basal plane of martensite.Copper based alloys exhibit this property in metastable β-phase field. High temperature β-phase bcc-structures martensiticaly undergo the non-conventional structures following two ordered reactions on cooling, and structural changes in nanoscale level govern this transition cooling. Atomic movements are also confined to interatomic lengths due to the diffusionless character of martensitic transformation.

In the present paper the effect of heat treatment on microstructure, martensitic transformation temperatures and magnetic properties behavior of Co-Ni-Ga pollycrystal was discussed in detail. Microscopic observations revealed two types of two phase polycrystalline alloys: i) martensite with γ-precipitates and ii) parent phase with γ-precipitates. Making use of Xray and electron diffraction methods the crystal structure of martensite phase was identified as bct structure (with co/ao about 1.2). Annealing of Co-Ni-Ga alloy at 1223K/40 min causes a separation of martensitic and magnetic transformation and an increase of the Curie temperature by about 70K, after this annealing any significant structural changes in the parent (martensitic) and γ phase are not observed.
