In this study, the fcc/hcp rnartensitic transformation and the SM effect were investigated in Co-A1 binary alloys(mole fraction of Al=0-16%). The γ/ε rnartensitic transformation temperatures were found from the DSC measurements to decrease with increasing Al content, while the transformation temperature hystereses were observed to increase from 60℃ at x(Al)=0 to 150℃ at x(Al) = 16%. The SM effect evaluated by a conventional bending test was enhanced by the addition of Al over 4% (mole fraction) and Co-Al alloys containing over 10%(mole fraction) exhibit a good SM effect associated with the hcpfee → reverse transformation above 200℃. The SM effect was significantly improved by precipitation of β (I32) phase and the max[real shape recovery strain of 2.2 % was obtained, which can be explained by precipitation hardening. The crystallographic orientations between the β, εand γ phases were also determined. Finally, the magnetic properties were investigated and it was found that the Curie temperature and saturation magnetization of Co-14% Al(mole fraction) are 690℃ and 120 emu/g, respectively. It is concluded that the Co-A1 alloys hold promise as new high-temperature and ferromagnetic SM alloys.展开更多

Among those α’ martensites, only the thin-plate martensite,which is characterized by containing a high density of transformation twins, has a potential of exhibiting a perfect shape memory （SM） effect.Recently the present authors found in Fe-Ni-Si alloys that the thin-plate martensite is formed by the introduction of fine and coherent γ’-（Ni,Fe）3Si particles with a L12 ordered structure in the austenite matrix due to ausaging. In the present study, the SM properties of the ausaged Fe-Ni-Si alloys with the thin-plate martensite are investigated by a conventional bending-test. The effects of the addition of Co to the Fe-Ni-Si alloys on the martensitic transformation and the SM properties are also investigated. It is shown that while the ausaged Fe-Ni-Si ternary alloys exhibit an imperfect SM effect due to reverse transformation from stress-induced thin-plate martensite to austenite, the SM properties are improved by the addition of Co. An almost perfect SM effect is confirmed in the Fe-Ni-Si-Co alloys by heating to 1 100 ℃ after deformation at -196 ℃.展开更多
