<p>PURPOSE:To obtain an Ni-Ti alloy having remarkably enhanced corrosion resistance without deteriorating the shape memory characteristics or superelasticity, by adding a specified amount of Pd to an Ni-Ti alloy. CONSTITUTION:The titled alloy consists of 46.0-43.0% Ti, 0.1-3.0% Pd and the balance Ni. Pd produces an effect of preventing crevice corrosion. When Pd is added by the lower limit or more, no crevice corrosion is caused, yet in case of more than the upper limit, the shape memory effect is reduced.</p> |
