Microstructure and elastic deformation behavior of β-type Ti-29Nb-13Ta-4.6Zr with promising mechanical properties for stent applications

In this paper, an attempt was made to combine theoretical composition design and thermo-mechanical treatments to produce a metastable β-type titanium alloy with mechanical compatibility for self-expandable stent applications. Metastable β-type Ti-29Nb-13Ta-4.6 Zr (wt.%) thin-wires with an elastic mo...
