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.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
