Abstract
⺠Melt-spun samples exhibited martensite structure and shape memory effects immediately after processing at room temperature. ⺠Using a new etchant and interference contrast, it is possible to reveal the fine microstructures and grain boundaries. ⺠The martensite structure in NiTi is very fine, and nano-sized twin boundaries could be revealed using TEM only. ⺠Two-way effects have been successfully introduced by different thermomechanical training methods in NiTi, NiTiCu and NiTiW alloys, which can be used for several applications, e.g. microsensors and microactuators.
