Evaluation of Corrosion Fatigue Behaviour of Laser-welded NiTi Alloys using Bending Rotation Fatigue Test in Simulated Body Fluid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Shape memory NiTi alloys have been used extensively for medical device applications such as orthopedic, dental, vascular and cardiovascular devices on account of their unique shape memory effect (SME) and super-elasticity (SE).

A Comparative Study Between NiTi and a New Flash Treated Superelastic Ti‐Zr‐Nb‐Sn Alloy for Cardiovascular Stents

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
The findings presented in this manuscript recommend the Ti‐22Zr‐11Nb‐2Sn alloy as a possible alternative to Nitinol for use in biomedical devices, especially in the large‐scale manufacturing of self‐expandable vascular stents used in angioplasty. ABSTRACT Nowadays, for applications such as coronary stents, the most widely used materials are Nitinol or ...

The Dependence of Properties on Structural Features in Macro/Micro Levels for PBF‐LB Fabricated Porous NiTi Alloy

open access: yesRare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Porous NiTi alloys are widely used in biomedical and engineering fields. Using the PBF‐LB technique, the TPMS and Voronoi porous parts with a porosity of ∼67% and a minimum feature size of 0.15 ± 0.02 mm were fabricated. Although the bulk sample fabricated with the same parameters is defect‐free, μ‐CT reconstruction on the porous sample ...

Twin‐Wire In Situ Additive Manufacturing of NiTiNb Eutectic Alloys: Eliminating Unmelted Nb Particles and Tailored Superelasticity

open access: yesRare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A major challenge in fabricating eutectic NiTiNb alloys is the incomplete melting of Nb due to its much higher melting point than the NiTi matrix. In this work, a novel electron‐beam freeform additive manufacturing strategy is developed to eliminate unmelted Nb particles and achieve a fully eutectic structure through independent dual‐wire ...
