Abstract

Indium-thallium alloys in the range 15-38 at. % Tl were electrodeposited from a sulfate electrolyte by using pulsed current. The relationship between composition and phase structure of the alloys deposited was investigated with regard to the shape memory effect. To date there have been no reported experimental studies describing the electrodeposition of InTl alloys capable of undergoing such transformations. Not only did the deposited alloys exhibit the shape memory effect, but the composition-phase relationship exhibited was shown to deviate from that reported for alloys in an equilibrium condition. The results show that the temperature and the temperature interval for the transformation of the electrodeposited alloys are substantially different from those of the thermally prepared alloys. The shape recovery for the electrodeposited alloys was also confirmed. © 1994.
