    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a guide wire which is used when a tube such as a catheter is inserted in a tubular organ such as a blood vessel, and to provide its manufacturing method. SOLUTION: This guide wire 10 is equipped with a core wire 20 having a diameter-reduced section 22 on the distal end section, a coil 30 which is fitted on the outer periphery of the distal end section of the core wire 20, and a resin layer 40 which coats the outer peripheries of them. The coil 30 has a coarsely wound section 34 having a gap between wire rods on both end sections, and has a closely wound section 36 without gap between the wire rods at an intermediate section. Then, to manufacture the guide wire 10, the core wire 20A having the coil which is constituted by fixing the coil 30 to the outer periphery of the distal end section of the core wire 20 is inserted in an extrusion-molding die from the proximal end side, and the draw-molding is performed. Thus, the resin layer 40 is coated on the outer peripheries of the core wire 20 and the coil 30. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a Ti-base alloy which has superior biocompatibility and can produce excellent spring characteristics and shape memory effect and also can attain manufacturing cost reduction. SOLUTION: The Ti-base alloy consists of, by atom, 0.01 to 20% Y, 1 to 20% X1 (where X1 is one element among V, Cr, Zr, Nb, Mo, Hf and Ta or a combination of several elements among them), 0 to 20% X2 (where X2 is one element among Al, Ag and Sn or a combination of several elements among them), and the balance Ti with inevitable impurities. Owing to the addition of the Y in the above percentage, crystal grains of the Ti-base alloy can be refined and intercrystalline cracking and slip deformation can be suppressed. In addition, owing to the addition of the X1 element in the above percentage, β-phase of the Ti-base alloy excellent in deformability can be stabilized. In this way, the Ti-base alloy having superior spring characteristics and shape memory effect can be obtained. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
