Abstract
Resistivity to thermal degradation in repeated martensitic transformation is evaluated through optical reflectivity measurements. Any thermal ageing treatment before thermal loading does not improve the resistivity, but rapid decrease in Ms temperature. Grain size refinement gives better thermal resistivity.
