Surface Modification of Additively Manufactured Nitinol by Wet Chemical Etching

Abstract: Three-dimensional printed nitinol (NiTi) alloys have broad prospects for application in medicine due to their unique mechanical properties (shape memory effect and superplasticity) and the possibilities of additive technologies. However, in addition to mechanical properties, specific physicochemical characteristics of the surface are necessary for successful medical applications. In this work, a comparative study of additively manufactured (AM) NiTi samples etched in H2SO4/H2O2, HCl/H2SO4, and NH4OH/H2O2 mixtu… Show more

“…In order to improve corrosion resistance and biocompatibility, the surface of NiTi shape memory alloys is modified by applying protective multifunctional ceramics, polymers or composites layers [ 1 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ]. However, the best binding of the metallic implant surface with the bone tissue is ensured by covering its surface with a coating composed of calcium phosphates (CaPs).…”
