Thermal- and stress-induced martensitic transformation was investigated on TiNi shape memory alloys subjected to severe plastic deformation (SPD) by cold rolling. TEM observation revelaed the sample is a mixture of nanocrystalline and amorphous after 40% cold rolling. DSC analysis suggested that the martensitic transformation was suppressed when the thickness reduction was over 25% reduction. Aging at lower temperatures (573 ~ 673 K, 3.6 ks) restores the phase transformations, but to a limited extent. The stress-strain curves of nanocrystalline/amorphous TiNi are characterized by absence of stress-plateau and small hysteresis.

Severe plastic deformation (SPD) is widely considered to be the most efficient process in obtaining ultrafine-grained bulk materials. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of the SPD process on Ni-Fe-Ga ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (FSMA). High-speed high-pressure torsion (HSHPT) was applied in the as-cast state. The exerted key parameters of deformation are described. Microstructural changes, including morphology that were the result of processing, were investigated by optical and scanning electron microscopy. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy was used to study the two-phase microstructure of the alloys. The influence of deformation on microstructural features, such as martensitic plates, intragranular γ phase precipitates, and grain boundaries’ dependence of the extent of deformation is disclosed by transmission electron microscopy. Moreover, the work brings to light the influence of deformation on the characteristics of martensitic transformation (MT). Vickers hardness measurements were carried out on disks obtained by SPD so as to correlate the hardness with the microstructure. The method represents a feasible alternative to obtain ultrafine-grained bulk Ni-Fe-Ga alloys.

NiTi shape memory alloys were subjected to a single step severe plastic deformation via the equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). The properties were analyzed by comparing the transformation characteristics for sections across the thickness of the deformed sample, with focus on the deformation gradient in the outer layers of the materials and the front surface that gradually engages in the deformation. A gradient related to the crystallinity and the state of stress was observed across the thickness of the deformed sample.
