Structure and mechanical properties of the porous TiNi alloys obtained by SHS method

In this paper, the porous TiNi alloys produced by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis at reaction onset temperatures ranging from 395°C to 515°C were studied. Porosity, average pore size, and wall thickness were determined using optical coherence tomography. The porosity decreased from 63% to 58-59%; the pore size reached a minimum of 5.9 pm at 495°C and increased to 27.1 pm at 515°C. Wall thickness varied from 78.1 pm at 395°C to a minimum value of 28.4 pm at 495°C. The compressive mechanical response of the alloys was governed by the structural parameters of the porous framework. With decreasing porosity and average pore size, the elastic modulus increased from 1200-1300 MPa to 2400 MPa, the ultimate strength from ~65 MPa to 128 MPa, and the strain to failure from ~7% to ~14%. The most favorable combination of high strength and ductility was achieved at a temperature of435°C. The dependence of the ultimate strength aB on porosity was approximated by the Gibson-Ashby model with n = 3.2 (R2 = 0.98).
