Abstract:The transformation behaviors assoeiated with R-phase and martensirie transformations inrapidly solidified TINi shape memory alloys have been studied systematieally using differential seanning  calorimetry，X-raydiffraetion，ete .It was found that rapid solidifieation  more signifieantly  depresses  the temperature ranges of R-phase and martensitc transformations than solutlon treatment and makes it possible that the martensite  transformation 15 separated from R-phase transformation. After aging the rapidly solidified Ni-rich TINi binary shape memory alloy the martensite can be seperated from the R-phase in not only the forward but also reverse transformations. With increasing aging time both the forward and reverse transformation temperature range so fmartensite and R-phase
