Abstract EN
Recently, studying the shape memory effect of the biocompatible Ti alloys takes much attention in the biomedical and healthcare applications.
This study concerns about characterizing the superelasticity of the new biocompatible Ti-17Nb-6Ta (TNT) alloy.
Microstructure of TNT was observed using optical and confocal microscopes.
The alloy consists of two phases: β (predominant phase) and α″ martensite phase.
The influence of cold rolling deformation on the microstructure was illustrated in which the martensitic-induced transformation appeared by cold rolling.
The alloy is ductile as only the fracture dimples appeared in its fracture surface.
Multicyclic loading and deloading tensile testing was applied to TNT specimens (flat and wire shapes) in order to evaluate the superelasticity.
A superelastic strain as high as 3.5% was recorded for this TNT alloy.
Therefore, TNT alloy has high potential for many biomedical and healthcare applications.
