Results for tag: "Shape Memory Material"

Shape Memory Materials (SMMs) are a type of advanced material that can be programmed to remember a certain shape and return to it after being deformed. This property is known as shape memory effect and is used in a variety of applications, such as medical implants, aerospace components, and consumer products. SMMs are typically made from metals, alloys, and polymers, and can be triggered by temperature, pressure, or electrical current. SMMs are becoming increasingly popular due to their ability to reduce weight and improve performance in a variety of applications. They are also being used in the automotive industry to reduce the weight of vehicles and improve fuel efficiency. Additionally, SMMs are being used in the medical field to create implants that can be adjusted to fit the patient’s body. Some of the major companies in the Shape Memory Material market include DowDuPont, BASF, ArcelorMittal, Nippon Steel, and U.S. Steel. These companies are involved in the production and distribution of SMMs, as well as research and development of new materials and applications. Show Less Read more
