Solution Treated

Effects of single- and multi-step aging on mechanical properties and shape memory properties of Ti-6Mo-8Al (mol%) biomedical shape memory alloy were studied using tensile tests at room temperature (RT). The solution-treated alloy at RT was two phase of bcc β and martensite α". Tensile tests revealed that the solution-treated alloy exhibited good shape memory effect. As for the single-step aging, (1) pseudoelastic shape recovery by unloading was observed after aging at 623K, (2) the alloy became brittle after aging at 773K due to ω embrittlement, and (3) strength was improved with small shape memory effect by aging at 1023K. On the other hand, after a multistep aging at 773K-1023K-1123K, the alloy was strengthened and showed perfect shape recovery. The improvement must be achieved by the formation of fine and uniform hcp α precipitates.

The Impact

Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are one of the most hopeful smart materials, especially, Nickel–Titanium (NiTi or Nitinol). These alloys are great and desirable due to their excellent reliability and behavior among all the commercially available alloys. In addition, strain recovery, (Ni–Ti) is granulated for a wide variety of medical uses because of its favorite properties such as fatigue behavior, corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. This paper explores the creation and the characterization of functionally graded (NiTi) materials. This work demonstrations the impact of Nickel contains changes on the characteristics of NiTi shape memory alloy, in order to obtain the suitable addition of Nickel contain, which gives the optimal balance between hardness, start and finish martensitic point, shape recovery and shape effect of alloys properties. These materials are prepared to obtain suddenly or gradually microstructure or composition differences inside the structure of one piece of material, the specimens made by powder metallurgy process and the influence of every layer of composite by; micro-hardness, transformation temperature DSC and shape effect. The hardness value and shape recovery decrease with increase nickel content. superior shape memory effect (SME) and shape recovery (SR) properties (i.e., 8.747, 10.270 for SMA-FGM1 SMA-FGM2 respectively, and SR is 1.735, 2.977 for SMA-FGM1 SMA-FGM2) respectively.
