This paper concerns the formation and characterization of superelastic springs and rings of NiTi alloys for long-term skull correction. Superelastic properties of the rings were induced in the process of ageing of the already formed rings which cause hardening of parent phase by the precipitation of coherent Ni(4)Ti(3) particles. The efficacy of the worked out springs and rings were successfully proved in several clinical applications.
本文涉及用于长期颅骨矫正的镍钛合金超弹性弹簧和环的形成与表征。环的超弹性特性是在已成型环的时效过程中产生的,该过程通过相干Ni(4)Ti(3)颗粒的析出使母相硬化。所研制的弹簧和环的功效已在多个临床应用中得到成功验证。
