The effect of aging time on at.%Ti59.27Ni40.73 shape memory alloy

Shape memory alloys are frequently used in many areas. However, the working conditions affect material properties after a certain time. In this study, temperature-induced transformation on a TiNi shape memory alloy was investigated by aging experiments at 400 °C for different durations. The aged samples were examined by DSC, EDC, XRD and SEM methods. The results were compared and analyzed.
