Thermal stability and phase transformations of martensitic Ti–Nb alloys

Science and Technology of Advanced Materials, 2013
Aiming at understanding the governing microstructural phenomena during heat treatments of Ni-free Ti-based shape memory materials for biomedical applications, a series of Ti-Nb alloys with Nb concentrations up to 29 wt% was produced by cold-crucible casting, followed by homogenization treatment and water quenching.

Experimental and Comparative Study of the Corrosion Behavior of Lean Duplex Stainless Steel in Seawater

Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
The localized corrosion behavior of lean duplex stainless steel EN 1.4062 is systematically compared with austenitic and higher‐alloyed duplex grades in natural seawater. A clear resistance ranking is established, highlighting EN 1.4062 as a cost‐effective alternative for limited marine exposure.

Precursor Phenomena of Martensitic Phase Transformation

Materials Transactions, JIM, 1992
The unique aspect of martensitic transformation is pointed out to lie in coexistence of apparently contradictory features of «non-locality» and «discreteness» during the ordering process. As a remarkable manifestation of this unique feature, the precursor phenomenon called «ghost lattice effect» observed in X-ray diffraction experiments is discussed ...
