Materials used for medical devices that are in contact with human tissue must have good corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. NiTi shape memory alloys (SMAs) are often used in medical applications due to their special functional and mechanical properties (shape memory effect, pseudo elasticity)
## Abstract A bioactive sodium titanate/titania graded film was formed __in situ__ on NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) by oxidizing in H~2~O~2~ solution and subsequent NaOH treatment and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, Xβray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared sp
