Martensitic transformation behavior in Ni–Al and Ni–Al–Re melt-spun ribbons

Abstract

The martensitic transformation behavior was investigated in rapidly solidified (melt-spun) Ni–(34–37)at%Al and Ni–(32–34)at%Al–2at%Re ribbons. The addition of Re increased the temperature for the formation of Ni 5Al 3, hence the martensitic transformations were observed at higher temperatures than those of binary Ni–Al alloys.
