The study of orientation variant selection helps to reveal the mechanism and dynamic process of martensitic transformations driven by temperature or pressure/stress. This is challenging due to the multiple variants which may coexist. While effects of temperature and microstructure in many martensitic transformations have been studied in detail, effects of stress and pressure are much less understood. Here, an in situ variant selection study of Mn2O3 across the cubic-to-orthorhombic martensitic transformation explores orientation variants at pressures up to 51.5 GPa and stresses up to 5.5 GPa, using diamond anvil cells in radial geometry with synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The diamonds not only exert pressure but also impose stress and cause plastic deformation and texture development. The crystal orientation changes were followed in situ and a {110}c 〈001〉c // (100)o 〈010〉o relationship was observed. Only the {110}c plane perpendicular to the stress direction was selected to become (100)o, resulting in a very strong texture of the orthorhombic phase. Contrary to most other martensitic transformations, this study reveals a clear and simple variant selection that is attributed to structural distortions under pressure and stress.

Partially-stabilized ZrO2 (PSZ) ceramics have considerable potential for advanced structural applications because of their high strength and toughness. These properties derive from small tetragonal ZrO2 (t-ZrO2) precipitates in a cubic (c) ZrO2 matrix, which transform martensitically to monoclinic (m) symmetry under applied stresses. The kinetics of the martensitic transformation is believed to be nucleation controlled and the nucleation is always stress induced. In situ observation of the martensitic transformation using transmission electron microscopy provides considerable information about the nucleation and growth aspects of the transformation.

In this memory effect study, hydrotalcite-type compounds in the lamellar double hydroxide-like (LDH)/zeolite A composite material were analyzed using X-Ray Diffration XRD) in situ experiments. Three samples were analyzed: Al,Mg-LDH, Al,Mg-LDH/ZA composite, and a physical mixture (50/50 wt%) of zeolite A and Al,Mg-LDH. The Al,Mg-LDH sample was treated at 500 °C in an O2 atmosphere and subsequently rehydrated. The Al,Mg-LDH/ZA composites had three treatments: one was performed at 300 °C in a He atmosphere, and two treatments were performed with an O2 atmosphere at 300 and 500 °C. In the physical mixture, two treatments were carried out under O2 flow at 500 °C and under He flow at 300 °C. Both went through the rehydration process. All samples were also analyzed by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results show that the LDH phase in the Al,Mg-LDH/ZA compounds has memory effects, and thus, the compound can be calcined and rehydrated. For the LDH in the composite, the best heat treatment system is a temperature of 300 °C in an inert atmosphere.

AbstractNon-toxic Ti-Nb-Mo scaffolds were fabricated by sintering rapidly solidified alloy fibers for biomedical applications. Microstructure and martensitic transformation behaviors of the porous scaffolds were investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetric and X-ray diffraction. Theα″–βtransformation occurs in the as-solidified fiber and the sintered scaffolds. According to the compressive test of the sintered scaffolds with 75% porosity, they exhibit good superelasticity and strain recovery ascribed to the stress-induced martensitic transformation and the shape memory effect. Because of the high porosity of the scaffolds, an elastic modulus of 1.4 GPa, which matches well with that of cancellous bone, could be obtained. The austenite transformation finishing temperature of 77Ti-18Nb-5Mo alloy scaffolds is 5.1°C which is well below the human body temperature, and then all mechanical properties and shape memory effect of the porous 77Ti-18Nb-5Mo scaffolds are applicable for bon replacement implants.
