Abstract Nickel-titanium alloys have been widely used in various fields such as aerospace and biomedical fields due to their unique functional characte-ristics, excellent corrosion resistance, and good biocompatibility. With the increasing and stringent application requirements, the connection technology between nickel-titanium alloys and other materials has gradually become a hot topic in the research field. Among them, the dissimilar welding of nickel-titanium alloy and stainless steel not only demonstrates superior comprehensive performance, but also has significant advantages in saving resources and reducing material costs. This article provides a systematic and comprehensive review of the research progress on dissimilar welding between nickel-titanium alloys and stainless steel. Specifically, the main challenges and underlying reasons faced in dissimilar welding processes were thoroughly analyzed from three key perspectives: precise control of welding process parameters, reasonable addition of intermediate layers, and effective implementation of post weld heat treatment. Secondly, a detailed review was conducted on the research trends of various welding methods, including laser welding, and the important effects of welding process and post weld heat treatment on the microstructure and mechanical properties of nickel-titanium alloy/stainless steel joints were deeply explored. Finally, the future directions for further exploration and research in this field were discussed, aiming to provide ideas and references for subsequent related research.
