Shape Memory Alloy Market Analysis

Shape memory alloys are the special alloys that return to their original shape upon heating. Shape memory alloys market have gained much attention in the recent years due to alloys unique characteristics, properties, and application in addressing typical design complexities. Shape Memory Alloy behavior can be broadly segmented as: one way shape memory and two way shape memory. In case of one way shape memory transformation to desired shape occurs only upon heating whereas in two way shape deformation shape is remembered during both cooling and heating.

Certain inherent properties of these alloys make them suitable for use in remote actuation features as well. Predominantly used shape memory alloy is made of Nickel and Titanium known as Nitinol. Other alloys being used at sparing rate for shape memory alloys include silver-cadmium, copper-tin, nickel-aluminum, and others.  Shape memory alloys find their wide application in automotive, aerospace, robotics, and biomedical application. Some of the developed products from shape memory alloys include gas flow micro valves, non-explosive release devices, and aerospace latching mechanisms. Other niche applications of shape memory alloy market include endodontics, orthopedic surgery, and telecommunication.
