  • Shape memory alloys are metallic materials that, when deformed, have the ability to recover their previous shape or size when exposed to a thermal procedure.
  • shape memory alloys There are generally two types of shape memory alloys: those that demonstrate shape memory from deformed martensite to austenite only upon heating (“one-way” shape memory alloys); and those that demonstrate a first shape memory when heated and a second memory in an opposite way to deformed martensite when cooled (“two-way” shape memory alloys).
  • shape memory alloy article when the shape memory alloy article is cold (or below its transformation temperature), it can be readily bent from its original first shape to a new second shape. However, when heated to a point above its transformation temperature, the article will return to its first shape as a result of a change in crystal structure.
  • shape memory alloys are known in the art. Since the discovery of memory effects in iron-based single-crystal Fe (30) - Mn (1) - Si alloys, a variety of iron-based shape memory alloys have been developed.

  • many such alloys require in excess of three training cycles in order to achieve satisfactory shape memory effect. This requirement causes significant energy consumption and makes difficult the dimensional control of the resulting product.

  • the shape memory mechanism of iron-based shape memory alloys results from the ⁇ (fcc) -> ⁇ (hcp) stress-induced martensitic phase transformation generated by partial dislocation slipping and its reverse transformation.
  • Fe-Mn-Si based alloys have very low stacking fault energy (about mJ/m 2 order of magnitude). Therefore, on the ⁇ 111 ⁇ f cc planes, ⁇ h ⁇ 110 perfect dislocation dissociates into two 1/6 ⁇ 112> partial dislocations, between which there is a stacking fault.
  • ⁇ (hep) martensite can form every other layer of the ⁇ 111 ⁇ planes through these Shockley partial imperfect dislocation slips and through fault extension and stacking.
  • This phase transformation can occur when the alloy is quenched from austenitic state hardening to temperatures lower than M s (about 0°C, for example), i.e. the so-called thermally-induced martensite (TIM) phase transformation.
  • Phase transformation can also occur when there is deformation at temperatures higher than M s , but lower than M d , i.e. so-called stress-induced martensite (SIM) phase transformation.
  • SIM stress-induced martensite
  • the straining (or deformation) in austenitic state at room temperature generates SIM. Then it is heated to a temperature (about 600°C, for example) above Af.

At the same time, the sample shape returns to its pre-deformation (austenite) state.
