Phase constitution and martensitic transformation behavior were investigated for a Au–51Ti–18Co alloy heat-treated at 1173 K to 1373 K for 3.6 ks. The Au–51Ti–18Co alloy was fabricated by Ar arc-melting technique and subsequently by hot-forging at 1423 K for 10.8 ks. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that B2 parent phase, B19 martensite phase and AuTi3 simultaneously appeared regardless of the heat-treatment temperatures. By increasing the heat-treatment temperature, the volume fraction of AuTi3 was slightly reduced. Besides, the lattice transformation strain which was calculated from the precisely-determined lattice parameters was evaluated to be 7 % in the Au–51Ti–18Co alloy in all the heat-treated conditions. This value is comparable to that of NiTi practical alloys. From differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis, reverse martensitic transformation temperature was slightly increased with the heat-treatment temperature. From the lattice transformation strain point of views, the Au–51Ti–18Co has a large potential for novel biomedical shape memory alloy.

The martensitic transformation and superelasticity of Ti49Ni51 shape memory alloy heat-treatment at different temperatures were investigated. The experimental results show that the microstructures of as-cast and heat-treated (723 K) Ni-rich Ti49Ni51 samples prepared by rapidly-solidified technology are composed of B2 TiNi phase, and Ti3Ni4 and Ti2Ni phases; the microstructures of heat-treated Ti49Ni51 samples at 773 and 823 K are composed of B2 TiNi phase, and of B2 TiNi and Ti2Ni phases, respectively. The martensitic transformation of as-cast Ti49Ni51 alloy is three-stage, A→R→M1 and R→M2 transformation during cooling, and two-stage, M→R→A transformation during heating. The transformations of the heat-treated Ti49Ni51 samples at 723 and 823 K are the A↔R↔M/A↔M transformation during cooling/heating, respectively. For the heat-treated alloy at 773 K, the transformations are the A→R/M→R→A during cooling/heating, respectively. For the heat-treated alloy at 773 K, only a small thermal hysteresis is suitable for sensor devices. The stable σmax values of 723 and 773 K heat-treated samples with a large Wd value exhibit high safety in application. The 773 and 823 K heat-treated samples have large stable strain–energy densities, and are a good superelastic alloy. The experimental data obtained provide a valuable reference for the industrial application of rapidly-solidified casting and heat-treated Ti49Ni51 alloy.

Cement free castables (CFC) based on alumina hydraulic binders by the hardening mechanism are similar to low-cement castables (LCC) and ultra-low-cement castables (ULCC). They are characterized by significant strengthening in the heat treatment temperature range of 200‒300 °C and sharp softening in the 600‒1000 °C range. By introducing silica sols or microsilica into their composition, it is possible not only to reduce or eliminate the softening effect, but also to increase their strength after firing due to the process of mullite formation. Compared to LCC, CFC based on alumina binders are characterized by improved thermomechanical properties. A comparative assessment of CFC based on hydraulic binders with other types of refractory concretes is given.
