Popis: | The influence of heating and cooling routes prior to the Ti–22Nb–6Zr (at.%) shape memory alloy ageing on the intensity of the isothermal ωiso phase formation in the temperature range from 250 to 350 °C for 1 and 3 h was studied by X-ray diffraction. It was shown that for intensive ωiso phase formation, the most efficient scheme for entering the ageing interval includes rapid water cooling to the room temperature from the annealing temperature of 600 °C and subsequent rapid heating to the ageing temperature of 300 °C. All other schemes used for entering the aging interval including slow cooling and/or heating do not lead to the formation of any X-ray identifiable ωiso phase amount. Whereas, the β → ωiso transition in the temperature range from 250 to 350 °C has a pronounced C-shaped kinetics with a maximum at 300 °C. When aged in the entire range of t = 250÷350 °С, the alloy features higher durability and hardness compared to the initial state. Moreover, the hardness gradually increases with an increase in the ageing temperature from 250 to 300 °C and remains constant in the temperature range of t = 300÷350 °С. The β phase lattice parameter of the Ti–22Nb–6Zr alloy remains unchanged over the entire aging temperature range of 250–350 °C, which indicates the absence of noticeable diffusion element redistribution in the solid solution during the ωiso phase formation. The ωiso phase formed during the Ti–22Nb–6Zr alloy ageing over the entire temperature range of t = 250÷350 °С has the ratio сω /аω = 0.613 ± 0.002, which is similar to the сω /аω ratio for the shear-type athermal ωath phase, which in turn further emphasizes the identity of these two phase varieties. |
