• Oxide formation on NiTi surface : influence of the heat treatment time to achieve the shape memory 

      Hansen, Alana Witt; Beltrami, Lílian Vanessa Rossa; Antonini, Leonardo Marasca; Villarinho, Denis Jardim; Neves, Júlio César Klein das; Marino, Cláudia Eliana Bruno; Malfatti, Célia de Fraga (2015) [Artigo de periódico]
      Several studies regarding superficial treatments of Nitinol (NiTi) shape-memory have been developed aiming to the improve corrosion resistance and to block the Ni release to adjacent tissues. The necessary heat treatment ...
    • The electrochemical behavior of the NiTi alloy in different simulated body fluids 

      Hansen, Alana Witt; Führ, Luciane Tais; Antonini, Leonardo Marasca; Villarinho, Denis Jardim; Marino, Cláudia Eliana Bruno; Malfatti, Célia de Fraga (2016) [Artigo de periódico]
      In order to improve the NiTi alloy biocompatibility, surface treatments become very important. Nevertheless, researchers use different solutions to simulate the body fluids in electrochemical assays, and the correlation ...
