【 摘 要 】

The shape recovery characteristics of titanium nickelide with an Ni content of 50.0 at % and 50.7 at % were studied in a wide range of structures obtained as a result of cold drawing with an accumulated true strain of e = 0.52 and subsequent annealing in the 250 to 700 °C temperature range. Shape memory effect (SME) inducing was carried out by bending using a non-isothermal loading mode, which made it possible to reveal implementing elastic strain in the equiatomic alloy up to 12% and thereby increase the total shape recovery by a factor of 1.5. The obtained results prove that the Ni content strongly affects the value and specific features of changes of the shape recovery characteristics with loading strain as well as grain/subgrain size. In equiatomic alloy, the total recovery strain manifests its maximum of 13.5–15% and the recovery strain of 9% at a loading strain range of 12 to 14%. In Ni-rich alloy, the total recovery strain manifests its maximum of 20% and the recovery strain of 14% at a loading strain range of 15 to 21%. The maximum two-way SME value correlates with the residual strain in both alloys and reaches its maximum of 3.0% in a material with a recrystallized structure. Varying the loading strain value under bending in the 11 to 21% range allows regulation of the temperature of shape recovery in Ni-rich alloy in the 45 to 80 °C range.
