Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) manufactures Nitinol Wire and Nitinol Rod commonly used in medical science as well as other various applications.

Properties of Nitinol Nitinol, also known as Nickel Titanium or Titanium Nickel Alloy, exhibits the unique properties of shape memory and superelasticity.

Shape memory is the ability to undergo deformation at one temperature, and then revert back to its original, pre-deformation shape upon heating above its transformation temperature.

Superelasticity is the phenomena where in the narrow range above its transformation temperature, no heating is necessary for Nitinol to revert back to its original shape, demonstratng enormous elasticity, up to 10-30 times that of ordinary metal.
