Differential scanning calorimetry （DSC） measurements shows that martensitic start transformation temperatures （Ms） decrease drastically with increasing Co content, while the R phase transformation start temperatures （Rs） vary slightly. Nevertheless, the substitution of Ni with Co does not exert substantial influence on the two-stage transformation behavior of the TiNiFe alloy. The results from stress-strain curves indicate that higher critical stress for stress-induced martensitic transformation （σSIM） has been obtained because of Co addition. In such cases, the Ti50Ni48sFelCO1.0 alloy maintains a good shape memory effect, and a maximum recoverable strain of 7.5 % can be obtained.展开更多
