## Abstract Aiming at imaging local differences in electrochemical activity and related corrosion effects, the surface of electropolished NiTi was investigated using alternating current scanning electrochemical microscopy (ACβSECM). Segregationβrelated spatial variations in the rates of the anodic
A new surface modification protocol encompassing an electropolishing pretreatment (EP) and subsequent photoelectrocatalytic oxidation (PEO) has been developed to improve the surface properties of biomedical nickel titanium (NiTi) shape memory alloy (SMA). Electropolishing is a good way to improve th
An improvement of the mechanical properties of powder metallurgically produced NiTi shape memory alloys was attained by reducing the impurity contents of oxygen and carbon. Elongation at fracture was increased to 16.5 % for Hot Isostatically Pressed (HIP), as well as for netβshape samples produced b
