Abstract
Comparative studies of physical characteristics (the electrical resistivity, the magnetic susceptibility, the magnetization, the bending deformation, and the degree of shape recovery during subsequent heating) of the Ni54Mn21Ga25 ferromagnetic alloy as-cast and rapidly quenched from melt have been performed in the temperature range 2–400 K. The results are compared to the results of studying the structural–phase transformations by transmission and scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. It is found that the rapid quenching influences the microstructure, the magnetic state, the critical temperatures, and the specific features of thermoelastic martensite transformations in the alloy. It is found that the resource of the alloy plasticity and thermomechanical bending cyclic stability demonstrates a record-breaking increase in the intercritical temperature range and during subsequent heating.
