Five times remelting in identical conditions was conducted to investigate the effect of successive remelting on the microstructural and thermal behavior of the alloy. Samples were hot rolled up to 25, 50, 75, and 90% reduction in thickness after heating at 900 °C. It was demonstrated that one-time remelting is required to achieve a target alloy composition. Thermal hysteresis remained almost constant with elevation in the rolling strain imposed. Furthermore, increased rolling reduction led to decreased enthalpy and entropy levels.enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/restrictedAccessArticle32209440944700091623160000210.1007/s11665-022-07796-zCu-Al-MnHomogenizationRemeltingRollingShape memory alloyTransformation temperature2-s2.0-85146566927
