But studies show that oxygen active elements can improve properties of some alloys, markedly. Yttrium is one of the oxygen active elements. In this paper, the effects of yttria addition on properties of TiNi have been studied via micro-indentation, hardness, wear and corrosive wear tests. It is demonstrated that by addition of yttria to 5%, TiNi alloy can own improved mechanical properties and resistance to wear and corrosive wear.展开更多

In this paper, it was demonstrated that by addition of yttrium, hardness properties and resistance to wear and corrosive wear of TiNi alloy were improved. New yttrium rich regions were formed in microstructure of TiNi alloy. The improved properties of this alloy by the yttrium addition could be attributed to the formation of these regions. The results showed that there was an optimum content for addition of yttrium between 2% and 5% （in wt%）, and above this content the improvement in properties of TiNi became minor.展开更多
