超弹性镍钛诺现已成为医疗行业中常见的知名工程材料。虽然镍钛诺合金更大的灵活性推动了许多应用，但在医疗设备中实际上有许多鲜为人知的优点。本文回顾了镍钛诺过去和未来成功的10个不太明显但非常重要的原因。几个新的医疗应用将被用来举例说明这些观点，包括快速增长和技术要求高的支架应用。支架特别有趣，因为它们涉及新的和复杂的制造技术，提出了一个苛刻的和有趣的疲劳环境，最有趣的是，利用镍钛诺的热弹性滞后。(C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A.版权所有
Superelastic nitinol is now a common and well-known engineering material in the medical industry. While the greater flexibility of the alloy drives many of the applications, there are actually a large number of lesser-known advantages of nitinol in medical devices. This paper reviews 10 of these less-obvious, but very important, reasons for nitinol's success, both past and future. Several new medical applications will be used to exemplify these points, including the quickly growing and technologically demanding stent applications. Stents are particularly interesting in that they involve new and complex manufacturing techniques, present a demanding and interesting fatigue environment, and most interestingly, take advantage of the thermoelastic hysteresis of nitinol.
