Slip, twinning and transformation in Laves phases. [Ti-TiCr[sub 2]; Fe-ZrFe[sub 2]; Ni-Cu-Mg containing MgNi[sub 2] and MgCu[sub 2]]
Research was concentrated on two-phase Ti-TiCr[sub 2] alloys, two- phase Fe-ZrFe[sub 2] alloys, and two-phase ternary Ni-Cu-Mg alloys containing MgNi[sub 2] and MgCu[sub 2] phases. Work demonstrated that a variety of room-temperature deformation processes are possible in Laves phases. A strain-induced phase transformation from C36[r arrow]C15 structures is one mechanism for plastic deformation in ZrFe[sub 2]. The C15 structure in TiCr[sub 2] deforms by slip and twinning. The microstructure after indentation of specimens containing C36 phases ZrFe[sub 2] and MgNi[sub 2] indicates that a variety of slip systems operate in this form. 8 figs.
