Cu–Al–Ni shape memory alloys (SMAs) have been developed for high temperatures engineering components such as sensor and actuators, due to their ability to work at temperatures near 200°C, rather than NiTi and Cu–Zn–Al alloys whose maximum working temperatures around 100°C. These alloys are widely used because they are much cheaper than NiTi/Cu-Zn-Al and do not require any complicated processing during their manufacturing as do for other shape memory alloys. In addition, these alloys have a small hysteresis and high transformation temperatures compared with other alloys. Despite all these advantages, these alloys have their limitations such as brittleness and low phase recovery strains and stress. The present review describes the role of alloying elements on the properties of Cu-Al-Ni shape memory alloys. It has been found that the additions of alloying elements have a significant effect on the formation, morphology, and structure of the obtained martensite, therefore, the properties of these alloys varied in accordance of these effects.

ABSTRACTThe role of alloying elements such as Cr and Al in the formation and stability of the nitride phases formed due to N ion implantation into metallic iron was studied by conversion electron Mössbauer spectroscopy (CEMS). The thermal stability of nitride phases upon 1 h annealing was greatly increased as a result of co-implanting either Cr or Al with N as compared to pure α-Fe implanted only with N.

Plants have developed various acclimation strategies in order to counteract the negative effects of abiotic stresses (including temperature stress), and biological membranes are important elements in these strategies. Brassinosteroids (BR) are plant steroid hormones that regulate plant growth and development and modulate their reaction against many environmental stresses including temperature stress, but their role in modifying the properties of the biological membrane is poorly known. In this paper, we characterise the molecular dynamics of chloroplast membranes that had been isolated from wild-type and a BR-deficient barley mutant that had been acclimated to low and high temperatures in order to enrich the knowledge about the role of BR as regulators of the dynamics of the photosynthetic membranes. The molecular dynamics of the membranes was investigated using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy in both a hydrophilic and hydrophobic area of the membranes. The content of BR was determined, and other important membrane components that affect their molecular dynamics such as chlorophylls, carotenoids and fatty acids in these membranes were also determined. The chloroplast membranes of the BR-mutant had a higher degree of rigidification than the membranes of the wild type. In the hydrophilic area, the most visible differences were observed in plants that had been grown at 20 °C, whereas in the hydrophobic core, they were visible at both 20 and 5 °C. There were no differences in the molecular dynamics of the studied membranes in the chloroplast membranes that had been isolated from plants that had been grown at 27 °C. The role of BR in regulating the molecular dynamics of the photosynthetic membranes will be discussed against the background of an analysis of the photosynthetic pigments and fatty acid composition in the chloroplasts.
