Some results concerning the martensite stabilization in Cu-Zn-Al single crystals with e/a = 1,48 and with certain distributions of {gamma} precipitates are presented. After several aging periods in martensite, the stabilization is reduced (practically eliminated) in samples containing precipitates when compared to the behavior of precipitate-free samples subjected to a step-quench type thermal treatment which is known to be effective in reducing the stabilization in copper-based shape memory alloys.
