The shape memory effect (SME) and superelasticity (SE) of Ni50.3Ti49.7 alloy single crystals were studied after quenching and marforming (deformation in the martensite phase, followed by annealing at 713 K for 0.5 h) along the [001] direction, under compression, in the high-temperature B2-phase. It was shown that marforming leads to the following: strengthening of the high-temperature B2-phase; an increase in the temperature range of SE; a decrease in the mechanical Δσ and thermal ΔТh hysteresis; and an increase in the transformation hardening coefficient Θ = dσ/dε, in comparison with the crystals after quenching. The reasons for improvements in the functional properties of [001]-oriented single crystals after marforming are discussed.
