A b s t r a c t : Young's modulus(E) and damping capacity(SDC) o f b i n a r y T i N i a1 l o y s have been measured between 150K and 375K by a f l e x u r a l v i b r a t i o n method w i t h a frequency o f about 260Hz and s t r a i n amplitude o f 1 x 1 0 - ~ . Ageing o f h i g h e r N i a l l o y s a t lower temperatures increases t r a n s f o r m a t i o n temperatures o f t h e quenched s t a t e and y i e l d s another c r i t i c a l p o i n t a t a h i g h e r temperature where E decreases and SDC increases sharply, w h i l e changes i n b o t h E and SDC o f lower N i a l l o y s aged a t h i g h e r temperatures a r e small. Ageing process i s discussed from these e f f e c t s o f ageing on t h e temperature s p e c t r a o f E and SDC which are c l a s s i f i e d i n d e t a i l i n t o seven cases.

The present r e p o r t deals w i t h systematical measurement o f temperature dependence o f Young's modulus and damping c a p a c i t y o f b i n a r y T i N i a l l o y s as f u n c t i o n o f N i contents and ageing treatments.

2. Experimental Procedure A l l o y s were prepared from sponge t i t a n i u m and e l e c t r o l y - t i c n i c k e l by arogon-arc m e l t i n g as 100g.buttons. They w i l l be named i n t h e f o l l o - wing paragraphs by t h e i r nominal c o n c e n t r a t i o n o f n i c k e l as atomic percent. They were processed t o sheets 0.75mm i n t h i c k n e s s by h o t and c o l d r o l l i n g and annealing. Specimens 10mm i n w i d t h and lOOmm i n l e n g t h were k e p t f o r 6h a t 1233k i n argon- sealed s i l i c a tubes and quenched by breaking t h e tubes i n water. They were heated t o 375K. and frequency o f f l e x u r a l v i b r a t i o n and i t s f r e e decay were measured on stepwise c o o l i n g ( c o o l i n g run) t o 150K and re-heating t o 375K(heating run) so t h a t t h e measurement was maqe a$ c o n s l a n t temperatures. The damping capacity(=SDC) was obtained as SDC=IOOx(Ah-An ) / A n
,
where A n i s t h e n t h amp1 i t u d e o f v i b r a t i o n and Young's modulus(=E) was c a l c u l a t e d from t h e resonant frequency. The specimens were aged a f t e r t h e f i r s t measurement i n an argon furnace and cooled i n i t s c o o l i n g zone. They were then measured again!,
and measurement and ageing were f u r t h e r repeatedf o r t h e same specimens.
