The internal friction at temperature up to 980 K in Ni50.3Ti29.7Zr20 (at.%) high temperature shape memory alloy was investigated. A relaxation peak was observed at about 750 K for 0.1 Hz. Its activation parameters were determined, Hact = 1.82 ± 0.04 eV, τ0 = 2.22 × 10−12 s. Similar relaxation peak w...
