✦ Synopsis

The martensitic transformation behavior, morphology and transition temperatures in NiTi-based shape memory alloys (SMAs) are strongly influenced by thermo-mechanical treatments. The present work aims to study the influence of heating/cooling rate on the transformation characteristics of a near-equiatomic NiTi SMA. There is a critical annealing temperature range where the transformation characteristics measured in the NiTi SMA are remarkably different. The changes in the transformation characteristics at different heating/cooling rates were studied by means of differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) measurements for four NiTi SMAs, which were made of the same raw material but heat-treated below and above the critical temperature. The results showed that the heating/cooling rate has strong influence on the transformation temperatures, the absorbed/released heat, and the elastic and irreversible energies during transformation.

The production of high quality powder metallurgical NiTi alloys with elevated phase transformation temperatures is challenging. During processing, an unavoidable pickup of impurity elements (especially oxygen and carbon) results in a decrease of phase transition temperatures and in the formation of
