摘要
Molten Cu-13AI and Cu-13AI-4Ni (mass fraction) alloys have been investigated using X-ray diffraction method. A distinct pre-peak has been found in the structure factors. The pre-peak increases its intensity with decreasing temperature and addition of Ni. The structural unit size corresponding to the pre-peak equals to magnitude of (111) planar distance of phase. The appearance of a pre-peak is due to existence of clusters with -phase-like structure in melt. Quantity and size of clusters increase with decreasing temperature but their structural unit size remains constant. Cu-13AI-4Ni shape memory alloy ribbons can be fabricated by rapid solidification technique. Order degree of martensite and temperature of the reverse martensitic transformation increase with decreasing liquid quenching temperature. phase particles develop from incorporating and growing of the clusters during solidification, thus result in the correlation between liquid structure and solid transformation.
