✦ Synopsis


In this study, the effect of Ta content on shape memory behavior of Ti-Ta alloys was investigated. The shape memory effect was confirmed in Ti-(30-40)Ta alloys. The martensitic transformation start temperature (M s ) decreased by 30 K per 1 at.% Ta. The amount of x phase formed during aging decreased with increasing Ta. A stable high-temperature shape memory effect was confirmed for Ti-32Ta (M s = 440 K) during thermal cycling between 173 and 513 K. On the other hand, the high-temperature shape memory effect of Ti-22Nb, which has a similar M s to Ti-32Ta, exhibited poor stability due to the large amount of x phase formed during thermal cycling. It is suggested that Ti-Ta is an attractive candidate for the development of novel high-temperature shape memory alloys.
