microstructure of NiTi based shape memory alloys
microstructure of NiTi based shape memory alloys
(OP)
Hello,
i would like to reveal the microstructure of NiTi shape memory alloy which is austenitic at room temperature.
What etching solution to use (chimical or elecrochemical)?
thank you

As I recall it depends on what features you are trying to examine.

If you don't have experience in working with dangerous chemicals or have the proper equipment and safety protocols to handle them, then I do not recommend using these particular types of etchants. HF is deadly. Do not let it come into contact with your skin. If it does it will be readily absorbed into your body. If this happens you will need to go to a treatment center immediately since it goes straight for your bones. Failing to seek medical attention could cost you your life in a matter of days.
