Shape Memory Alloys for Biomedical Applications
Woodhead Publishing Ltd, Nov 2008, Pages: 352
Shape memory metals are suitable for a wide range of biomedical devices including applications in dentistry, bone repair, urology and cardiology. This book provides a thorough review of shape memory metals and devices for medical applications. The first part of the book discusses the materials, primarily Ti-Ni based alloys; chapters cover the mechanical properties, thermodynamics, composition, fabrication of parts, chemical reactivity, surface modification and biocompatibility. Medical and dental devices using shape memory metals are reviewed in the following section, chapters cover stents, orthodontic devices and endodontic instruments. Finally, future developments in this area are discussed including alternatives to Ti-Ni based shape memory alloys.
