Abstract

NiTi shape memory alloy was successfully fabricated from Ni/Ti multilayers via an innovatively combinative route consisting of accumulative roll bonding (ARB), high-pressure torsion (HPT) and annealing. Due to the severe plastic deformation induced by ARB and HPT, the subsequent post annealing time was significantly reduced. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis confirms the occurrence of austenitic and martensitic transformations during heating and cooling process, implying that the shape memory effect was obtained.
