Abstract

Ti-21.8Nb-6Zr and Ti-19.7Nb-5.8Ta (at.%) shape memory alloys for medical implants were subjected to a thermomechanical treatment comprising cold rolling and post-deformation annealing. The evolutions of their structure and their superelastic behavior were monitored during mechanical “loading-unloading” 10-cycle testing (3 times) and during long-term pauses between testing (40 and 365 days). During the first multicycle testing of the Ti-Nb-Ta alloy, its Young's modulus showed a significant decrease (from 30 GPa - 40 GPa to 20 GPa - 25 GPa). It regained its initial value after a first pause, and then decreased again during re-testing, but to a smaller extent, regaining its initial value after the second pause and finally stabilizing. The Ti-Nb-Zr alloy demonstrated more stable SE behavior than the Ti-Nb-Ta alloy: its Young's modulus showed only a 10 % decrease during the first mechanical cycling (from 31 GPa - 40 GPa to 27 GPa - 37 GPa), restored its initial value after a first pause and then remained stable.
