The Ti–20Zr–10Ta alloy exhibited a reversible transformation with the high martensite transformation temperature of 500oC and good thermal stability. The alloy displayed the elongation of 15% and a maximum recovery stain of 5.5% with 8% pre-strain.展开更多

The TiZrTa sample has a cubic structure （β-phase） and shows a sharp superconducting transition at a critical temperature （To） of about 7.3 K. In addition, two series of Ti-Zr-Ta alloys, with nominal compositions of Ti65-xZr35Tax and TixZr65-xTa35 respectively,are prepared, and their superconductivities and crystal structures change regularly with the chemical composition. Our experimental study also indicates that the annealing processing of this kind of material can cause the transition temperature to increase and the highest Tc is observed to be about 8.3 K in annealed samples.展开更多
