The high temperature shape memory alloy Ti51Ni13Pd36 was subjected to a cold working and annealing treatment to improve its mechanical properties and the shape memory effect. It was found that recovery of the cold worked alloys started at near 673 K and the recrystallization temperature was at about 748 K. The grain size decreased with the increase of annealing temperature below 923 K and then increased when above 923 K. The smallest average grain size of about 3.5 mu m, which is approximately 10 times smaller than the hot rolled one, permitted the best combination of the mechanical properties in the alloy annealed at 923 K for 1 h. The cold rolling raised the peak temperature of reverse transformation. This temperature dropped very sharply when the specimen was annealed at temperatures higher than 673 K.
