Аннотация

Nickel–titanium alloys produced through powder metallurgy were subjected to controlled aging treatments to examine how thermal exposure influences microstructural evolution, oxide formation, and corrosion performance. Aging at [Formula: see text]C for 1–3[Formula: see text]h progressively reduced porosity and promoted the development of intermetallic phases such as Ni 3 Ti, Ni 4 Ti 3 , and Ti 2 Ni, along with increasingly uniform TiO 2 surface layers. SEM, EDS, and XRD analyses confirmed enhanced oxide coverage and phase redistribution with longer aging durations. Electrochemical testing revealed a consistent improvement in corrosion resistance, with the 3[Formula: see text]h-aged alloy exhibiting the lowest corrosion rate and highest charge-transfer resistance. These results demonstrate that aging-induced TiO 2 formation significantly stabilizes the surface and improves biocorrosion behavior, offering an effective strategy for optimizing PM-processed NiTi alloys for biomedical applications.
