Product Introduction

Nickel Titanium (also known as Nitinol or NiTi) is a unique class of shape memory alloys (SMA). Its extraordinary properties come from a thermoelastic martensitic phase transformation, which enables both shape memory behavior and superelasticity.

Nitinol alloys typically consist of:

Nickel (Ni): 55% – 56%

Titanium (Ti): 44% – 45%

Even small composition variations can significantly change transformation temperature, mechanical behavior, and functional performance.

Key Properties of Nitinol

Shape Memory Effect

Nitinol can be deformed at low temperature and recover its original shape when heated above its transformation temperature.

Superelasticity

Provides:

Extremely high elastic strain recovery

Excellent kink resistance

Stable cyclic performance

Thermal Sensitivity

Transformation temperatures (Af, Ms, As) can be precisely tuned through composition control.

Typical Applications

Medical Industry
