Determination Some Physical Properties of Ground NiMnCoSn Magnetic Shape Memory Alloy Powders

Abstract

In this study, NiMnCoSn alloy was produced in the arc melting furnace and then grounded into small powder particles. After this procedure, particles of alloys were pelletized and heat treatment was applied to pellet alloys for 3 different temperatures (500 oC,700 oC and 900 oC). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and physical property measuring system (PMMS) were used for determining physical properties of samples. It was observed that, grounding procedure is effected all physical properties of NiMnSnCo shape memory alloys, seriously.
