Nitinol, short for “nickel titanium Naval Ordnance Laboratory,” is a unique alloy known for its shape memory and superelastic properties. It’s composed primarily of nickel and titanium and exhibits some fascinating characteristics when it comes to springs and other mechanical devices. Nitinol shape memory springs are particularly noteworthy for their ability to return to a predetermined shape after deforming, thanks to a phase transition at a specific temperature.
Nitinol shape memory straight wires undergo a reversible phase transformation between two crystal structures, martensite (low-temperature phase) and austenite (high-temperature phase). The shape memory effect is the ability of Nitinol to “remember” its original shape and return to it when heated above a critical temperature, known as the transformation temperature.
Nitinol Superelastic Spring also exhibits superelasticity or pseudoelasticity. This means it can endure significant deformation while still returning to its original shape upon unloading without undergoing phase transformation. This property is due to stress-induced martensitic transformation.
