What is memory metal?

Nitinol, a nickel titanium alloy. The name stands for Nickel Titanium-Naval Ordnance Laboratory. Developed in 1959 as a more heat and impact resistant material for ICBM nosecones, it was discovered to exhibit the shape memory effect by accident laboratory management meeting in 1961. But practical use of nitinol's shape memory did not happen until the 1990s due to difficulties in processing. The shape memory effect in general dates back to 1932, when Swedish chemist Arne Ölander first observed it in gold cadmium alloys. The shape memory effect was also observed in brass in the early 1950s.
