Abstract

Abstract:

Effect of heat treatment on the mechanical properties of 50.8at% Ni-Ti shape memory alloy undergone solution treatment and aging at different temperatures was studied by conducting unidirectional tensile test to obtain the yield strength, tensile strength, elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio. The microstructures were observed before and after the heat treatments by metallographic microscope, the corresponding grain sizes were estimated, and the effect of grain size on the yield strength was analyzed based on Hall-Petch theory. The results show that after solution and aging treatments, significant improvement is found in the mechanical properties of the NiTi shape memory alloy. The conclusion provides the experimental foundation for the engineering applications of the NiTi shape memory alloy and is beneficial to enlarge its application range.

Key words: NiTi shape memory alloy, solution treatment, aging treatment, mechanical properties, grain size
