How To Finalize Your Demands For Nitinol

Nitinol (Nickel-Titanium)

Nitinol is a metal alloy consisting of nickel and titanium. Nitinol alloys exhibit two closely related and quantifiable properties:

Shape Memory Effect: The shape memory effect is the ability of Nitinol to deform at a specific temperature and to recover its original, undeformed shape when heated above its transformation temperature.

Superelasticity: Superelasticity occurs within a narrow temperature range slightly above the transformation temperature; consequently, heating is not required to restore the undeformed shape, and the material has an elasticity that is approximately 10–30 times that of conventional metals.

Af Point: The Af point is the final temperature at which the transformation from martensite to austenite concludes. Nitinol exhibits its superelastic properties or shape memory effect when heated above the Af point. (At which temperature does Nitinol become superelastic or recover its original shape?)

One-Way Shape Memory Alloy: The alloy can be deformed by an external force below the Af point and returns to its original shape when heated above the Af point.

Two-Way Shape Memory Alloy: The alloy adopts one shape at lower temperatures and a different shape at higher temperatures, with the change occurring automatically.
