| Abstract | |
This work aimed to investigate and critically analyze the differences in microstructural features and thermal stability of Cu-11.3Al-3.2Ni-3.0Mn-0.5Zr shape memory alloy processed by selective laser melting (SLM) and conventional powder metallurgy. PM specimens were produced by sintering 106-180 mu m pre-alloyed powders under an argon atmosphere at 1060 degrees C without secondary operations. SLM specimens were consolidated through melting 32-106 mu m pre-alloyed powders on a Cu-10Sn substrate. Mechanical properties were measured through Vickers hardness testing. Differential scanning calorimetry was conducted to assess the martensitic transformation temperatures. X-ray diffraction patterns were collected to identify the metallurgical phases. Optical and scanning electron microscopy was used to analyze the microstructural features. beta(1)' martensite was found, irrespective of the processing route, although coarser martensitic variants were present in PM-specimens. In conventional powder metallurgy samples, intergranular eutectoid constituents and stabilized austenite also formed at room temperature. PM-specimens showed similar average hardness values to the SLM-specimens, albeit with high standard deviation linked to the porosity. The specimens processed by SLM showed reversible martensitic transformation (T-0 =171 degrees C). PM-processed specimens did not show shape memory effects. (AU) | |
