3D Printing Nitinol Powder With Excellent Performance
Nitinol alloy is made up of two metals, titanium and nickel. The austenite phase, and the martensite, are different phases of crystallization due to temperature and mechanical stress changes. The nickel-titanium metal alloy has several excellent characteristics, such as high damping, wear resistance and super elasticity.
Nitinol Powder Performance
1. Shape memoryThe material automatically returns to its mother phase when it undergoes a reverse phase transformation. It is true that the shape memory process is a thermally initiated phase transformation of Nitinol.
2.Superelasticity
Superelasticity is the phenomenon in which a sample under the influence of an external force produces a larger strain than its elastic limit, but the strain can automatically be restored upon unloading. It is the case that, when the parent phase is in its state, due to stress applied, the martensitic transition occurs. This results in a different mechanical behavior than ordinary materials.
3. Sensitivity in the mouth to temperature changes
The temperature in the mouth cavity does not affect the correction force of CoCr alloy wire or stainless steel wire. The temperature in the oral cavity affects the corrective force of super-elastic nickel titanium alloy orthopedic wire.
4. Corrosion resistance
According to recent studies, the corrosion resistance between stainless steel wire and nickel-titanium cable is very similar.
5. Anti-toxicity
This alloy is a nickel-titanium atomic alloy, which is known for its carcinogenic properties. In normal circumstances, titanium oxide on the surface acts as barrier. This makes Ni-Ti alloys biocompatible. TiXOy, TixNiOy and TixNiOy on the surface can inhibit Ni release.
6. Corrective correction
Currently commercially used orthopedic wires include austenitic stainless steel wires, cobalt-chromium-nickel alloy wires, nickel-chromium alloy wires, Australian alloy wires, gold alloy wires and ss titanium alloy wires. Nitinol has the lowest unloading curve and flattest platform, which indicates that it is capable of providing the softest and most durable correction force.
7. Good shock absorption properties
The root and periodontal tissue is more damaged by the higher the vibration caused by the archwire. Different arch wire attenuation studies have revealed that the vibration amplitude for stainless steel wires is greater than that of super elastic Ni-Ti. The initial vibratory amplitude of Ni-Ti super-elastic arch wire is only half that of the stainless steel wire. The health of teeth is extremely important.
