Abstract
The effect of cerium addition on the martensitic transformation behavior and microstructure of Ti50-x/2Ni50-x/2Cex (x=0, 0.5, 2, 5 and 10at.%) alloys have been studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The results show that the addition of cerium affects the martensitic transformation temperature obviously. With the increase of Ce content, the phase transformation temperatures first increase rapidly and then decrease slightly, which may be attributed to the change of the Ni/Ti ratio in matrix. Moreover, the dispersed Ce-riched second particles with various morphologies are observed in TiNiCe alloys.
