Experimental results show that the addition of 0.5~1 at.% Si into TiNi alloy behaves good shape memory effect. The Ms temperature of Ti50Ni50-XSiX alloys is much higher, but that of Ti50-XNi50SiX alloys can be lowered by increasing Si addition. We conclude that Si behaves as Ni in TiNiSi alloys. In TiNiSi alloys, Ti2Ni is found around grain boundaries. Non- stoichiometric Ti-rich and Ni-rich TiNiSi precipatates are also found in the matrix and grain boundaries.
