Abstract:
An electrolytically-detachable microcoil is introduced here in the paper. The testing results indicate that, the microcoils have stable mechanical properties, clear radiographic images and fine insulation performance. Their detaching time varies from 30s to 200s when voltage changes from 2V to 5V.
