The features of welding of functional materials such as medical Ti$_{49.2}$Ni$_{50.6}$Ag$_{0.2}$ alloy are investigated. Thermal influence of welding by the AC method and current of capacitors’ discharge on alloy structure, martensitic transformation parameters, and shape-memory effect are considered. As noted, the welding seam is tougher after current of capacitors’ discharge because of formation of a molten core. Change in parameters of martensitic transformation in the welding seam is observed. To maintain the functional properties, appropriate heat treatment of welded samples is proposed.
Key words: TiNi-based alloys, martensitic transformations, shape-memory effect, welding.
