Effect of plastic deformation on phase transitions in a Ti50Ni47Fe3 alloy
Abstract
The results of x-ray structural studies of the effect of previous plastic deformation by rolling on the occurrence of phase transitions in a TiNi(Fe) alloy are presented in the present work. The temperature dependences of the Bragg reflection intensities and half-widths and the dependence of the rhombic angle in the R phase with various degrees of deformation were obtained. Analysis of the results found gave the following rules. Plastic deformation substantially shifts the characteristic temperatures of the martensitic transitions (MT) R-B19' and B19'-B19″, increases the temperature range of the transformation and can result in a "stepwise" transformation. It was observed that deformation weakly affects the temperature TR for the B2-R transformation.
