Abstract

Experimental information on the transformation temperatures and the thermodynamic properties of the near-equiatomic TiNi alloys is analyzed. Special attention is paid to the estimation of T 0 temperature from experimental M s and A f temperatures. The properties of the TiNi low-temperature phase (B19′) are evaluated from selected experimental data by using a two-sublattice model. The Ti-Ni phase diagram including the B19′ phase is then calculated. It reveals that the equiatomic TiNi parent phase (B2) remains stable from high temperatures until 370 K, and then the B19′ phase becomes thermodynamically stable as a linear compound under 370 K. Thermodynamic quantities such as the T 0 temperature and transformation enthalpy are also calculated and compared with experimental data. Further, the M s temperature is predicted and compared with data from different sources.
