A study of the grain growth kinetics in two shape memory alloys, CuAlBe and CuZnAl, is reported. Isothermal aging treatments at temperatures between 1023 and 1123 K were conducted, determining the grain size distribution as a function of time. The results show that the size distribution can be described by a log-normal type relationship, and is time-invariant. It was found that the arithmetic mean grain size almost coincide with the mode, which means that it is a representative parameter of the microstructure along the annealing time. The growth kinetics is strongly dependent on the aging temperature in CuZnAl, while is weakly in CuAlBe. It was verified that the grain size-time power law usually applied is not appropriate to describe the process, and an early departure from the ideal behavior is observed. The modification with a time-dependent dragging force gives a reasonable approximation to the grain growth kinetic. The obtained results are compared with the scarce data existing on this type of alloys.

“…For that, a CueAleBe alloy with a DO 3 / 18R transformation is used. This system has relative advantages when subjected to thermal treatments: i) the grain growth can be well controlled [12], ii) the b phase is highly stable, and then precipitation can be avoided [13], iii) no chemical composition changes are detected under the required thermal treatments. This last point is extremely important considering that M s increases 114 K each 1 at.% Be decrease [14].…”

Cu-13Al-0.545Be shape memory alloy are heat treatment at different temperature and time. The microstructure of alloy after heat treatment at 850°C, 650°C and aging at 150°C ,450°C and 550°C for 2, 4 and 6 h study by optical microscope and X-ray diffraction. Bending test is use to show effect of heat treatment on super-elastic and shape memory effect.Micro hardness test used to show effect of heat treatment on micro hardness .shape memory effect increase at heat treatment 650°C and aging at 150°C, while at 450°C and 550°C will decrease because precipitate formation rate rises with increase in temperature and time. The hardness and precipitates in the alloy increases with increasing ageing duration. Higher ageing temperature avoids the imperfection by moving and filling the empty space thereby hardens the alloy.
