The aim of this paper is the investigation of electroplastic deformation (EPD) and subsequent annealing influence on martensitic transformation in the shape memory Ni50.7Ti49.3 alloy. Using differential scanning calorimetry method it was shown that EPD at the low strain stimulates structure relaxation and recovers martensitic transformation in cooling, which is usually suppressed by cold rolling.

The rare earth element Gd is added to Ni53Mn22Co6Ga19 high-temperature shape memory alloy to refine the grain size and adjust the distribution of γ phase, and their microstructure, martensitic transformation behaviors, mechanical and shape memory properties were investigated. The results show that the grain size is obviously decreased and the γ phase tends to segregate at grain boundaries with increasing Gd content. Small amounts of Gd-rich phase were formed with 0.1 at.% Gd addition. The martensitic transformation temperature abruptly increases with 0.1 at.% Gd addition, then almost keeps constant with further increasing Gd content. The addition of 0.1 at.% Gd is proved to be beneficial to both tensile stress and strain before fracture, but negative to the shape-memory effect.

In this paper, the microstructure of Cu82.3Al8.3Mn9.4 (in wt. %) shape memory alloy after hot and cold rolling was investigated. The Cu82.3Al8.3Mn9.4 alloy was produced by a vertical continuous casting method in the form a cylinder rod of 8 mm in diameter. After the casting, hot and cold rolling was performed. By hot rolling a strip with a thickness of 1.75 mm was obtained, while by cold rolling a strip with a thickness of 1.02 mm was produced. After the rolling process, heat treatment was performed. Heat treatment was carried out by solution annealing at 900 °C held for 30 minutes and water quenched immediately after heating. The microstructure characterization of the investigated alloy was carried out by optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with a device for energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). Phase transformation temperatures and fusion enthalpies were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) method. The homogenous martensite microstructure was confirmed by OM and SEM micrographs after casting. During rolling the two-phase microstructure occurred. Results of DSC analysis showed martensite start (Ms), martensite finish (Mf), austenite start (As) and austenite finish (Af) temperatures.

This study examines the effect of Sn additions on Cu-14%Al-4.5%Ni shape memory alloy. Sn was added in three different percentages (0.3,1,3) %. The alloys were mechanically tested both in compression test and micro hardness test. Also, a thermo-mechanical test was performed on the alloys. Results showed an increase in the transformation temperature outside the domain and also a better recovery strain with the increase of Sn percentage of 3% Sn addition showed the best results in mechanical properties while the 3% Sn showed a better Shape Memory Properties near to super elastic.
