What Are Shape Memory Materials?

Shape memory materials (SMMs) are a class of smart materials that can return to a pre-defined shape when exposed to a specific stimulus such as heat, magnetic field, or stress. The two main types are shape memory alloys (SMAs), most commonly nickel-titanium (Nitinol), and shape memory polymers (SMPs), each offering different recovery mechanisms and operating temperature ranges.

Shape Memory Material Applications

These materials are used in medical devices such as stents and orthodontic wires, aerospace actuators, MEMS components, microrobotics, and electrical connectors. Their ability to perform repeatable mechanical work in response to environmental changes also makes them suitable for soft robotics, adaptive structures, and Braille display systems.
