Abstract
Effect of single and simultaneous addition of Ni and Co to Ti45Zr5Pdx on the phase transformation and strain recovery of the alloys was investigated to understand multi-component effect on high-temperature shape memory alloys. The martensitic transformation from B2 to B19 structures occurred in Ti45Zr5Pd40Ni10, Ti45Zr5Pd40Co10, Ti45Zr5Pd40Ni8Co2, and Ti45Zr5Pd40Ni2Co8. In contrast, at room temperature, martensitic transformation did not occur and the B2 structure was stable in Ti45Zr5Pd30Ni20 and Ti45Zr5Pd40Ni5Co5. This is due to the effect of Ni for Ti45Zr5Pd30Ni20 and the effect of multi-component for Ti45Zr5Pd40Ni5Co5. The shape memory effect was investigated using a thermal cyclic test. The perfect shape recovery was obtained after the repeated thermal cyclic test, indicating the potential of TiZrPd (Ni, Co) alloys as shape memory alloys.
