Abstract

The self-accommodation microstructure of a β-titanium shape memory alloy (SMA) was investigated by conventional transmission electron microscopy (CTEM) observation. There were two distinct minimum units for the self-accommodation microstructure. One was the V-shaped pair of two habit plane variants that were bounded by the {111}TypeI twin as reported in some previous studies. The other was the bundle of the two habit plane variants that were bounded by the <211>TypeII twin. The later one had not been recognized as the self-accommodation microstructure in β-titanium SMAs.
