Abstract
Metallographic studies have been made of precipitation processes in Ti-50 pct Ni and Ti-52 pct Ni (at. pct) shape memory alloys. The eutectoid and peritectoid reactions previously reported for near-equiatomic and Ni-rich TiNi alloys were not observed for either composition. In the Ti-52Ni alloy, diffusional transformations take place, similar to those in supersaturated alloys. The precipitation sequence can be written asβ 0 → Ti11Ni14 → Ti2Ni3 → TiNi3. The solidus line of the TiNi phase in the Ti-52Ni alloy lies at 812 ± 22 °C. Morphological characteristics of the various precipitate phases are described in detail.
