    The present invention provides for Cu—Zn—Al(6%) alloy and an improved process to lower the martensitic transformation temperature, by a low temperature re-betatising treatment from 110° C. to 30° C. i.e. a lowering of 80° C. wherein previously high temperature betatised material has been subjected to re-betatising at lower temperature in order to utilize the material suitably.

    Experimental setup […] These prepared ingots were kept at 900 °C for 4 h for the homogenization and then passed between the rollers at 900 °C to achieve a uniform thickness of approximately 1 mm. These rolled strips were then betatized at 900 °C for 30 min and followed by step quenching at boiling water (100 °C) and then water at room temperature (∼26 °C).

    The alloy specimens were extracted from homogenized plates using wire-EDM and allowed for thermal treatment (betatization). During betatization, the specimens were kept in Ar-atmosphere at 850 °C for 10 minutes and then rapidly quenched into water at room temperature. To investigate the microstructure of the SMAs, the betatized specimens were initially prepared by mechanical polishing (scratch-free surface) and then etched with a solution of 2 g of FeCl₃ + 2 ml of HCl + 95 ml of methanol. […] The microstructure of the betatized alloys without and with boron-doping is shown in Fig. 1.

    She can hold her purse, she's just trying to betatize you, and I don’t use that world lightly, into doing something for her and kind of turning you into this, like, doormat for. You might think I'm exaggerating here and I'm being this complete red pull guy, I'm telling you, it’s the truth, she’s willing to see if she can steal the frame and make you her personal assistant and kind of make you do something, like, everything you do has to be on your own terms, right, so when she says hold my purse for me and you hold it for her, I know it may not seem deep, but it definitely is.
