Effects of Al2O3 Nanopowders on the Wear Behavior of NiTi Shape Memory Alloys

Abstract: TiNi shape memory alloy and its composite using d-Al 2 O 3 nanosize particles were prepared by the powder metallurgy method, and some mechanical properties like hardness, wear, and corrosion behavior were investigated. The experimental results exhibited that the lower wear rate was obtained for the nano-Al 2 O 3 -reinforced Ti alloy composite due to increased hardness, but the wear rate increased considerably with increasing the load over 25 N for Ti alloy. However, the best corrosion resistance was obtained f… Show more

“…To determine the relative density (%) of sintered compacts, the Archimedes' principle specified in the European Standard EN 99 (ISO 10545-3, 1991) [10] was employed and to assess the Rockwell B hardness of the Cu composite samples, a load of 60 kg-f was applied for a duration of 15 seconds. Hardness and density measurements were taken for each sample at least six times.…”

“…The Vickers hardness value (VHN) was measured at a load of 1.96 N for the SiC/NiTi composites. The hardness values tend to increase due to the increasing amount of SiC in NiTi matrix to form more ceramic phases around grain boundaries [10].…”

“…Significant increase in wear rate of the composite was observed. One reason is that ultra-fine sized SiC particles prevent the movement of dislocations in the NiTi matrix through a dispersion-strengthening mechanism [10]. Also, 5 wt.% SiC particle-reinforced NiTi demonstrated lower wear than that of unreinforced NiTi composites for all applied loads.…”

“…Near-equiatomic Ti-Ni alloys are widely used in engineering, aeronautics, dentistry, and medical fields because of their superior shape memory effect and superelasticity [1,2]. But, Ni-Ti instruments exhibit a lower microhardness (303-362 VHN) compared to stainless steel materials (522-542 VHN) [3,4].…”
