Fabrication of NiTi alloy: A review

Nitinol (NiTi) is categorized as a smart material which is highly recognized material for medical and other engineering applications. The behaviour of NiTi can be modified by altering the composition, modifying the porosity and applying external thermal and mechanical treatment. Due to high composition sensitivity, there are several impediments in fabrication of NiTi with conventional techniques which impel the use of additive manufacturing...
