In this study, the effect of Ta content on shape memory behavior of Ti-Ta alloys was investigated. The shape memory effect was confirmed in Ti-(30-40)Ta alloys. The martensitic transformation start temperature (M-s) decreased by 30 K per 1 at.% Ta. The amount of omega phase formed during aging decreased with increasing Ta. A stable high-temperature shape memory effect was confirmed for Ti-32Ta (M-s = 440 K) during thermal cycling between 173 and 513 K. On the other hand, the high-temperature shape memory effect of Ti-22Nb, which has a similar M-s to Ti-32Ta, exhibited poor stability due to the large amount of omega phase formed during thermal cycling. It is suggested that Ti-Ta is an attractive candidate for the development of novel high-temperature shape memory alloys. (C) 2008 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
