Porous Ti-50.5Ni shape memory alloys with different porosities were produced using a space-holder sintering method. A new Ni-free Ti-based shape memory alloy, Ti-18Nb-5Mo-5Sn, was developed for potential biomedical applications, and a novel one-step hydrothermal process was applied to produce hydroxyapatite coatings on the surface of Ti alloy.
