    Abstract: Ti—Nb—Hf/Zr—(Cr) alloy shape-memory wires are provided which are suitable for use in medical devices and actuators, and methods for manufacturing such wires are provided. The present shape-memory Ti—Nb—Hf/Zr—(Cr) alloy is a superelastic wire material particularly suited for in vivo applications. For example, the present Ti—Nb—Hf/Zr—(Cr) alloy wire is radiopaque, thereby enabling surgical use of a monolithic, shape-memory alloy wire while preserving the ability to monitor the in vivo location of the wire through X-ray or other radiation-based imaging systems. In addition, the present Ti—Nb—Hf/Zr—(Cr) alloy can be manufactured to exhibit shape-memory alloy material properties without the use of nickel as an alloy constituent, thereby accommodating nickel-sensitive patients. The present Ti—Nb—Hf/Zr—(Cr) alloy can also be processed to exhibit a martensite/austenite transformation temperature near body-temperature, i.e., 37° C., so that shape-memory effects can be utilized to accomplish work in vivo.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a strip made of an AlMgSi alloy in which a rolling ingot is cast of an AlMgSi alloy, the rolling ingot is subjected to homogenization, the rolling ingot which has been brought to rolling temperature is hot-rolled, and then is optionally cold-rolled to the final thickness thereof. The problem of providing a method for producing an aluminum strip made of an AlMgSi alloy and an aluminum strip, which has a higher breaking elongation with constant strength and therefore enables higher degrees of deformation in producing structured metal sheets, is solved in that the hot strip has a temperature of no more than 130° C. directly at the exit of the last rolling pass, preferably a temperature of no more than 100° C., and the hot strip is coiled at that or a lower temperature.
