What are the key properties of nitinol capillary tubes?
The performance characteristics of nickel-titanium capillary tubes can be described as follows:
Shape memory effect: Nickel-titanium is a shape memory alloy. After being deformed at lower temperatures, capillary tubes can return to their original shape when heated, which is a unique and important property.
Superelasticity: it can withstand large deformation without permanent plastic deformation, and can return to the original state after removing external force, showing excellent elasticity within a certain stress range.
High biocompatibility: It has good biocompatibility and is suitable for applications that may come into contact with the human body or biological substances in certain fields, such as the medical field.
Corrosion resistance: has a strong ability to resist various corrosive environments, including oxidation and acid, alkali, salt corrosion.
Precise dimensions: Capillaries can be manufactured with high precision in terms of outside diameter, wall thickness and length, ensuring accurate performance in applications that require precise control.
