SUPERELASTIC NICKEL-TITANIUM ALLOY DOWNHOLE SEALS, WELLBORE TOOLS INCLUDING SUCH SEALS, AND RELATED METHODS |
摘要 |
A superelastic metal seal for use in a downhole tool, wherein the superelastic metal seal may be formed from a superelastic Ni—Ti alloy. The superelastic Ni—Ti alloy may be prestrained with a permanent strain. Superelasticity may be imparted to the superelastic Ni—Ti alloy through a thermal treatment process or through prestraining the superelastic Ni—Ti alloy. The superelastic Ni—Ti alloy may exhibit superelastic behavior. The superelastic Ni—Ti alloy may not exhibit shape memory behavior. |
