How does Nitinol Memory Alloy work? A shape memory alloy is Nitinol. This is a unique alloy that automatically returns its plastic deformation back to the original shape when heated up. The alloy’s expansion rate exceeds 20%. It can withstand fatigue up to 1*10, 10x more than other springs. Additionally, it has better corrosion resistance than any medical stainless steel. This makes it a versatile material that is well-suited for various engineering purposes. The memory alloy’s unique shape-memory function is not the only thing that makes it special. Other than its wear resistance and corrosion resistance, other outstanding characteristics include super elasticity, super damping, and high elasticity.

The clinical application of Nitinol Memory alloy

Spring made from nickel-titanium: These springs are for orthodontics. These super elastic springs can be used to treat orthodontic problems such as opening up gaps between teeth or pulling teeth in different directions. A nickel-titanium coil spring is capable of producing a force up to 50g when it’s extended 1mm. Because of their elastic properties, nickel-titanium coilsprings can generate a force of about 50g when extended by 1mm. It is possible to produce the optimal orthodontic force for moving clinically treated teeth by reducing the attenuation. Conform to the requirements. High elasticity, low deformation rates and low permanent deformation rate make Nitinol wire a tension spring. The corrective force released is 2.5-4 times greater than stainless steel wire. In orthodontic treatment the patient has the benefit of light pain and a lasting feeling. The follow-up is shorter, which in turn reduces treatment times and increases the curative effects. The new device is excellent in orthodontic treatment. It’s used in the alignment and leveling the patients’ dentition. Because of the Nitinol’s shape memory and superelasticity, it is often used clinically as an initial arch for orthodontic treatment. The patient will feel much less discomfort when they use silk. MBT technology, which uses 0.016 inches of heat activated titanium alloy archwire (HANT wire), recommends that the DEMON self locking bracket technology use copper-containing heat activated titanium manufactured by Omcro. O-PAK’s correction technology recommends that alloy arch wire be used (phase transition temperature at about 40 degrees). Super-elastic Nitinol Arch wire should also be used for alignment and leveling. TRUNNANO is also known as. Lempotee Nano Technology Co.
