“…According to their study, the TiNiCu thin-film micropump exhibited a high pumping yield, high working frequency, stable driving capacity, and long fatigue lifetime. Chen and Wu [21] Although TiNiCu SMAs are promising candidates for unique biomedical applications, degradations in the biocompatibility of TiNiCu SMAs implants may lead to the risk of released metal ions, in which Ni and Cu ions are typically considered potential health hazards. However, according to the literature review we conducted, the selective leaching properties of TiNiCu SMAs have not been studied in detail before.…”

“…Ti 50 Ni 50 shape memory alloy (SMA) possesses excellent pseudoelasticity and shape memory effect [1,2]. Experimental results also demonstrate that Ti 50 Ni 50 SMA is characterized by a very good biocompatibility [3,4,5]. Thus, it has led to extensive applications in biomedicine and engineering [6,7,8].…”

“…The addition of Cu, which substitutes for Ni in NiTi SMAs, such as Ni 40 Ti 50 Cu 10 , improves the stability of the phase transformation temperatures responsible for the shape memory effect and pseudoelasticity (up to 8 % reversible strain) and narrows the phase transformation hysteresis [6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Heat treatments can be used to enhance the mechanical properties, increase the phase transformation temperatures, and likely decrease Ni release, and thus, decrease toxic, allergic, and carcinogenic effects [13] by forming Ni 4 Ti 3 precipitates, which also improve the phase transformation recovery.…”
