Nitinol |
NITINOL is not just simply another material. It is much more. Shape Memory and Superelasticity are properties not found in other materials, yet allowing innovative solutions. NITINOL is a preferred material in the medical device industry, where advanced stents and filters as well as a variety of flexible instruments are made from our semi-finished products. The advantages of NITINOL have been recognized by the automotive industry and in electrical engineering as well. For more technical information of Nitinol, available forms, please contact us. |

NITINOL alloys are available either in superelastic condition or as shape memory alloys. Depending on their composition, they have a transition temperature of -15°C to +80°C. This means that their properties can be optimised for the specific application. |
Special features of NITINOL : |
 |
Elastic ductility (10x greater than in steel) |
 |
High buckling resistance |
 |
Good bio compatibility |
|
 |
Titanium Alloys |
The Titanium-base alloy Ti45Nb features extremely good biocompatibility and a lower density than Stainless Steel or Cobalt-base alloys. Our titanium alloy tubes find applications in surgical implants. Kindly contact us for more detailed specifications, chemical compositions, physical properties, mechanical properties of Titanium alloy. |
Characteristics of Titanium-base alloys: |
 |
Satisfactory tensile strength |
 |
Neutral in contact with (human)tissue |
|
|
|
|
 |
Cobalt Alloys |
Especially in the field of orthopedics the family of Cobalt-base alloys are in high demand due to their high density and resulting good visibility in X-ray light.
But also in the field of cardiovascular stents the alloys L605 and MP35N are in growing demand due to their outstanding corrosion features. |
Characteristics of Cobalt-base alloys: |
 |
High density |
 |
High E-module |
 |
Small grain size |
|
|
|
|
 |
Stainless Steel |
The very high corrosion resistance and resulting biocompatibility as well as the extremely small inclusion size make our Stainless Steel 316LVM a popular alloy for implants and the leading alloy for cardiovascular stents. |
Characteristics of our Stainless Steel alloys: |
 |
Good tensile strength/strength characteristics |
 |
Small grain size |
 |
High elasticity in the as drawn condition |
