Problems solved by technology

The matrix strength of NiTi binary alloy is low, and the critical shear stress of martensitic transformation is not significantly higher than the critical stress of plastic slip, so the alloy is prone to slip during deformation, resulting in deterioration of memory performance.
For example, adding Hf to the binary NiTi alloy will cause serious lattice distortion, resulting in poor plastic deformation ability at room temperature.
At present, the single maximum cold deformation of NiTiHf alloy is less than 20%, which seriously restricts the process forming of subsequent parts

Abstract

The invention discloses a boron-containing shape memory alloy and a preparation method thereof. The boron-containing shape memory alloy is prepared from Ni, Ti, Zr and B, and the chemical formula of the boron-containing shape memory alloy is Ni < 51-y > Ti < 49-x > Zr < x > By, wherein, x is equal to 1.0-5.0, y is equal to 1.0-3.0, and x and y are the mole percent of Zr and the mole percent of B in the alloy respectively. According to the boron-containing shape memory alloy, a boron element is added to form TiB2 particles with the nanoscale, the TiB2 particles serve as heterogeneous nucleation cores to refine a matrix structure to improve the strength of the alloy and improve the plasticity of the alloy, and therefore the alloy has the advantages of being high in toughness and elasticity and good in recoverability, and the use requirements of the shape memory alloy on high thermal stability and excellent plasticity can be met; and the preparation method of the boron-containing shape memory alloy is simple in overall process, easy in control, easy in realizing continuous production and low in production cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of shape memory alloys, in particular to a boron-containing shape memory alloy and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Shape memory alloys are unique materials that can deform and return to a predetermined shape after unloading or heating. So far, there are three main types of shape memory alloys with practical application value: Ni-Ti-based, Fe-based and Cu-based memory alloys, among which Ni-Ti-based memory alloys have good shape memory properties, strong fatigue resistance, high strength, and biological Excellent compatibility and other characteristics, suitable for applications in most fields. Fe-based and Cu-based memory alloys are relatively low in cost, but their poor stability and thermomechanical properties limit their development and application. Even the most mature NiTi shape memory alloy currently has low tensile strength and martensitic transformation temperature, whic...
