Definitions

  • the invention is based on a shape memory alloy according to the preamble of claim 1 and on a method for stabilizing the two-way effect according to the preamble of claims 6 and 7.
  • these alloys show a clear memory effect compared to the known Ni / Ti alloys in a temperature range of more than 100 ° C (which is particularly interesting for temperature monitoring devices and overcurrent switches), they are metastable. This means that they are subject to phase changes due to diffusion in the desired temperature range. At the response temperature or just above it, the high-temperature ⁇ phase changes and the memory effect is lost.
  • the invention is based on the object of specifying aging-resistant memory alloys of the Cu / Al or Cu / Al / Ni type at temperatures of over 100 ° C. and a method for their production or stabilization of the two-way effect.
  • the method of stabilization consists essentially in a heat treatment of the alloy in the cast or hot-kneaded state after the last annealing in the ⁇ mixed-crystal region in the temperature range from 600 to 950 ° C. (5 to 60 min) and before the induction of the two-way effect.
  • the heat treatment is an annealing in the temperature range of 200 to 350 ° C, which can in principle be carried out in two ways. In a first process, the alloy is after the last annealing in the ⁇ mixed crystal region quenched to room temperature and then tempered for 0.1 to 10 h in the temperature range from 200 to 350 ° C.
  • the alloy is quenched after the last annealing from the / 3 mixed crystal region directly into an oil, salt, metal or sand bath at 250 to 350 ° C., held here for 0.5 to 10 minutes and finally on the air cooled to room temperature.
  • this heat treatment is followed by a deformation of 1 to 6% in the range from 30 ° C. above to 50 ° C. below the point of the martensitic transformation M S in order to induce the two-way memory effect.
  • the method extends to the entire alloy group of the ⁇ -type Cu / Al and Cu / Al / Ni, in particular to alloys with 10 to 15% by weight aluminum, 0 to 6% by weight nickel, the rest copper.
  • the nickel can be partially or completely replaced by manganese, iron, cobalt or a mixture of at least two of these elements. Alloys produced by this process are resistant to aging up to 300 C, i.e. they mainly consist of the ⁇ high-temperature phase and show a stable two-way effect.
  • Exemplary embodiment I (explanation of the prior art) An alloy of the following composition was used as the starting material:
  • the alloy was produced by melt metallurgy, cast into an ingot and then thermoformed at 700 ° C in such a way that a rod with a diameter of 10 mm was created. The rod was then subjected to annealing in the ⁇ mixed-crystal region for 10 min at 750 ° C. and quenched in water. Torsion samples with a total measuring length of 40 mm and a measuring length of 22 mm with a diameter of 3 mm were worked out from the rod.
  • the two-way effect was induced by subjecting the samples to torsional stress in the vicinity of the martensitic transformation point M S (150 ° C.) in such a way that the torsional strain was gradually increased to 4 to 5% while simultaneously going through a heating / cooling cycle .
  • the samples were then annealed at a temperature of 300 ° C. for 1 h. The review showed that the memory effect had completely disappeared.
  • the invention is not limited to the examples above. In principle, the method can be applied to all ⁇ -copper alloys of this type.
  • Another cheap alloy has the following composition:
  • the level of the transition temperature M S can obviously be strongly influenced by small variations in the aluminum content.
  • the above-mentioned substitutes manganese, iron, cobalt can also be used.
  • the method according to the invention creates memory alloys which exceed those in electro technology and in many industrial and household applications, the usual range of temperature monitoring are resistant to aging and show a stable two-way effect. This closes a previously existing gap in surveillance technology.
