Abstract
By X-ray diffraction, optical, scanning and transmission electron microscopy methods the structural-phase state of NiTi surface layers affected by low-energy high-current electron beams have been investigated. It was found that during treatment in recrystallized layer thickness of 8 – 10 μm a nonequilibrium single-phase structural state forms, which is characterized by a deformed B2 based phase structure, textured in a direction close to the . The downstream with depths ranging from 10 to 20 μm layer except B2 phase with insignificant distortions of the crystal lattice contains a small volume fracture (up to 5 vol. %) of martensitic phase with В19′ structure. As a result of electron-beam treatment the modified layer chemical composition has changed to titanium enrichment due to Ti2Ni phase particles melting. At the same time intervals of martensitic transformations are shifted to higher temperatures thus even at room temperature can be expected that in the present layer the main structural state is martensitic. Using transmission electron microscopy the studies have showed that in the modified layer the martensitic phase is not observed. The assumption, explaining the created by a pulsed electron beam impact on the NiTi surface structure-phase state is expressed.
