Structure parameters and degradation of the critical current of the alloy NT-50 after cryogenic drawing in an ultrasonic field
2001
The parameters of the defect and phase structure of the alloy NT-50 are investigated after low-temperature (77 K) deformation by drawing in an ultrasonic field, and the influence of these parameters on the amount of degradation of the critical current under tensile loading at 4.2 K is studied. It is found that cryogenic ultrasonic deformation leads to intensified decomposition of the β-solid solution with precipitation of Ti-rich phases according to the kinetics of the spontaneous martensitic transformation and results in a reduction of the internal stress level in the alloys. The structural features found promote stabilization of the β-solid solution during a subsequent deep cooling, as is manifested in a lowering of the degree of completion of the low-temperature deformation-induced martensitic transformation, which in turn raises the threshold for degradation of the critical current and reduces the degree of degradation in a wide range of external mechanical loads.
