Abstract

Using ultra-small angle neutron scattering method, we have analyzed sizes of pores of 100 nm-25 µm in diameter in specimens from NiTi shape memory alloys produced by metal injection moulding before and after pulse electric current treatment. Such treatment invokes coalescence of pores with diameter smaller than 4 m and size reduction of pores with diameter exceeding 4 µm.
