Abstract:
Disclosed is a piston ring which can vary a tension under low-temperature and low-load
conditions and a tension under high-temperature and high-load conditions, and
therefore can minimize the friction loss and improve the fuel efficiency. The
piston ring is formed by a shape memory alloy comprising 34.7 to 48.5 mol% inclusive of
nickel, 9 to 22.5 mol% inclusive of at least either one of zirconium and hafnium and
1 to 30 mol% of niobium, with the remainder being titanium and unavoidable impurities.
