Tan Δ

One internal friction peak associated with the B2↔B19’ transformation appears on the cooling curve of porous NiTi shape memory alloy and the dense NiTi alloy shows the maximum peak. The tan δ value increased with the increasing of strain amplitude and the decreasing of frequency. Tan δ value of porous alloy mainly comes from the energy absorbing of the matrix at the small strain amplitude, however, if the strain amplitude is large, the tan δ value comes from the energy consumption that overcomes the friction between folds and the plastic contribution.

High Temperature Synthesis

The pore characteristics and pore size distribution of porous near-equiatomic NiTi shape memory alloy fabricated by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) are described in detail. The effects of different heat treatments on the transformation of porous NiTi alloy were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), x-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicate that heat treatment had strong influences on the transformation temperatures and latent heats of transformation. When the porous alloy was annealed at 648K and 748K for 3.6ks, two steps transformation including R transformation occurred during cooling and heating and the R transformation temperatures are lower than B 2↔ B 19' transformation temperatures. However, no transformation was detected within the experimental temperature range if the porous alloy was solution treated at 1133K for 2.4ks. This novel phenomenon was the results of extensive Ti2Ni intermetallic compound precipitation. The transformation temperatures of porous NiTi alloy after annealing at 1323K for 3.6ks were much lower than those of the untreated alloy.

Nano Coating

Recent years have seen the dynamic development of methods for functionalizing the surface of implants using biomaterials that can mimic the physical and mechanical nature of native tissue, prevent the formation of bacterial biofilm, promote osteoconduction, and have the ability to sustain cell proliferation. One of the concepts for achieving this goal, which is presented in this work, is to functionalize the surface of NiTi shape memory alloy by an atypical glass-like nanocomposite that consists of SiO2-TiO2 with silver nanoparticles. However, determining the potential medical uses of bio(nano)coating prepared in this way requires an analysis of its surface roughness, tribology, or wettability, especially in the context of the commonly used reference coat-forming hydroxyapatite (HAp). According to our results, the surface roughness ranged between (112 ± 3) nm (Ag-SiO2)—(141 ± 5) nm (HAp), the water contact angle was in the range (74.8 ± 1.6)° (Ag-SiO2)—(70.6 ± 1.2)° (HAp), while the surface free energy was in the range of 45.4 mJ/m2 (Ag-SiO2)—46.8 mJ/m2 (HAp). The adhesive force and friction coefficient were determined to be 1.04 (Ag-SiO2)—1.14 (HAp) and 0.247 ± 0.012 (Ag-SiO2) and 0.397 ± 0.034 (HAp), respectively. The chemical data showed that the release of the metal, mainly Ni from the covered NiTi substrate or Ag from Ag-SiO2 coating had a negligible effect. It was revealed that the NiTi alloy that was coated with Ag-SiO2 did not favor the formation of E. coli or S. aureus biofilm compared to the HAp-coated alloy. Moreover, both approaches to surface functionalization indicated good viability of the normal human dermal fibroblast and osteoblast cells and confirmed the high osteoconductive features of the biomaterial. The similarities of both types of coat-forming materials indicate an excellent potential of the silver-silica composite as a new material for the functionalization of the surface of a biomaterial and the development of a new type of functionalized implants.

Bp Model

Artificial neural network (ANN) is an intriguing data processing technique. Over the last decade, it was applied widely in the chemistry field, but there were few applications in the porous NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA). In this paper, 32 sets of samples from thermal explosion experiments were used to build a three-layer BP (back propagation) neural network model. According to the registered BP model, the effect of process parameters including heating rate ( ), green density ( ) and particle size of Ti ( d ) on compressive properties of reacted products including ultimate compressive strength ( v D σ ) and ultimate compressive strain (ε ) was analyzed. The predicted results agree with the actual data within reasonable experimental error, which shows that the BP model is a practically very useful tool in the properties analysis and process parameters design of the porous NiTi SMA prepared by thermal explosion method.

The present study investigates the superelasticity properties of spark plasma sintered (SPS) nickel titanium shape memory alloy (NiTi SMA) with the influence of sintering temperature and particle size. The nanoindentation is conducted on the surface of the NiTi SMA at various loads such as 100, 300 and 500[Formula: see text]mN. The nanoindentation technique determines the quantitative results of elasto-plastic properties such as depth recovery in the form of superelasticity, stiffness, hardness and work recovery ratio from load–depth ([Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text]) data during loading and unloading of the indenter. Experimental findings show that the depth and work recovery ratio increases with the decrease of indentation load and particle size. In contrast, increasing the sintering temperature exhibited a better depth and work recovery due to the removal of pores which could enhance the reverse transformation. The contact stiffness is influenced by [Formula: see text] which leads to attain a maximum stiffness at the highest load (500[Formula: see text]mN) and particle size (45[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m) along with the lowest sintering temperature (700∘C). NiTi alloy exhibited a maximum hardness of 9.46[Formula: see text]GPa when subjected to indent at the lowest load and particle size sintered at 800∘C. The present study reveals a better superelastic behavior in NiTi SMA by reducing the particle size and indentation load associated with the enhancement of sintering temperature.

Austenitic shape memory alloy has potential applications in self-centering seismic resistant structural systems due to its superelastic response under cyclic tension. Raw austenitic SMA needs proper pretreatments and pretraining to gain a stable superelastic property. In this paper, tests are carried out to investigate the effects of pretraining, pretreatments, loading rate, and strain amplitude on the mechanical performance on austenitic SMA rods with a given size. The tested rods are to be used in a new concept self-centering steel link beam. Customized pretraining scheme and heat treatment are determined through the tests. The effects of loading rate and strain amplitude are investigated. A simplified stress-strain model for the SMA rods oriented to numerical simulations is obtained based on the test results. An example of using the simplified material model in numerical analysis of a self-centering steel link beam is conducted to validate the applicability of the model.

ABSTRACTNiTi shape memory alloy presents interesting mechanical properties as surgical implants. However, due to its high amount of Ni which may dissolve and release toxic ions in human fluids, the medical use of this material is a great concern. We have developed a laser treatment which modifies the oxide layer and enhances uniform and localised corrosion resistance of NiTi alloy.In this paper we further analysed the effect of this treatment with potentiostatic and AC impedance measurements in physiological Hank's solution. We conclude that the laser treatment creates a stable passive film which results in improved corrosion resistance of this alloy.
