Interrelation of microstructure and thermodynamic parameters in TiNi alloy during multiple martensitic transformations

The effect of multiple martensitic transformations on the microstructure and thermodynamic parameters of the alloy of the TiNi system was investigated. It was shown that in the Ti50Ni50 alloy, with an increase in the number of thermal cycles with rapid heating and cooling up to n = 100, a consistent increase in the dislocation density occurs, and a decrease in the width of martensitic plates is observed. And also, that in TCs with fast heating and cooling of the Ti50Ni50 alloy in a coarse-grained state, a change in the trend in the temperatures of martensitic transformations is observed — with an increase in the number of thermal cycles to n = 50, they decrease, and at n> 50 the temperatures increase
