The microstructure and superplastic behavior at 450 degrees C and 500 degrees C in Cu-Al-Mn-based shape memory alloys were investigated using optical microscopy and a tensile test. It was found that a fine a (fee) + beta (bcc) two-phase structure with a grain size of 3 Pm in diameter can be obtained in Cu-Al-Mn-Ni alloy by annealing at 600 degrees C. The flow stress of Cu-Al-Mn-Ni alloy depends on the strain rate and the strain rate sensitivity is over 0.3 with an elongation of over several hundred percent, which shows that the Cu-Al-Mn-Ni shape memory alloy exhibits superplasticity. For the test temperature at 500 degrees C and a strain rate of 5 x 10(-4) s(-1), a maximal elongation of 1150% was obtained. The formation of cavity stringers lying parallel to the tensile axis was observed and the size of the cavity was larger as the specimen was more highly deformed.
