Properties of Nitinol

Memry engineer Graeme W. Paul, PhD, demonstrates the superelastic and shape memory effects possible with nitinol, a nickel-titanium alloy. Nitinol is widely used in the medical device arena for such applications as stents, implants and retrieval devices, and in industrial applications such as couplings, actuators and sealings, and in commercial applications such as cellphone antennae and eyeglass frames.
