    I’m an orthodontist…we also use this to align your teeth with braces. The wire comes in a “standard” arch shape (the shape of straight teeth around an arch, it’s a U shape). The wire deforms when we put it in the brackets which are on mis-aligned teeth (aka not in a perfect U shape), and the wire slowly returns to its original perfect U shape, helped by the heat of your mouth, which causes your teeth to move to their ideal position (which happens by your teeth causing your jawbone to dissolve and reform).
    It revolutionized orthodontics. Awesome material for sure!

    Allright I want to use this with my 3D printer. I wonder who will be the first to create Notinol as a filament. I'm handicapped and would love to use it to help me walk longer distances. Right now I can only walk about 30 feet (10 meters) before I have to sit down for a minute and rest my leg. God bless the scientist who discovered this amazing metal.

      Unfortunately that's not possible 😮‍💨 the bonds which make nitinol work, would be broken by the melting process. Nitinol only works between certain temperatures. After a certain temperatures, it "breaks" the ability to return to it's shape, and just becomes a piece of wire

      the development of a similar material started during WW2, however it was not reliable and never achieved it's goals.
      It was a few years AFTER 1947 *wink wink* that the US military took a giant step and produced Nitinol.
      And Alex Jones was right!

    Not that it matters, but the first time I purchased Nitinol was in the late 1980's. It was through an educators science source catalog, so I'm not sure if that classifies it as being available to the general public? 🤔 Cool stuff!

    They should use this for the new sr72 blackbird or as gaskets bw the titanium panels since the exterior acts as a fueselage for maximum fuel capacity and weight savings needed for hypersonic travel. As the previous sr71 had fuel leakage after high temp from flights would cause the titanium to warp. But this would allow fitting clearences to remain more precise in duty. Lockheed martin should look into this, if they havent already.
    Imagine if this alloy could combine w silicon to allow for elec flow, chip degradation and electronics reliabilty would greatly improve bc it would retain it shape from heat stress.

    It would be nice to use that technique for the people who have their legs problems of concern. Some people have a really stiff legs, and some people have to wear specially tight socks and they cannot wear their shoes on by bending themselves easily anymore since they lost bending functions quite a lot. Is it possible to help patients with parkinson, as well as the people who cannot wear shoes with ribbons for men, women and kids?
    The shoe' thread type ribbons are great, but it would be nice to have the "alternatives" to have such "purposes to be able to survive as one of the survival solutions to be able to escape, in order to live to enjoy LIFE" by having such "flexibilities of shrinking functions "to serve the needs "to connect the LIFE of the ribbon to ABLE to "al" WALK"?
    I think, I saw such tie rubber like ribbon shoes for kids, but I don't think I have seen such "FUNCTIONS" for the WOMEN and MEN'S Shoes for their expensive working shoe laces 👞 👢 . Perhaps I should visit the shoe shop to see, if I have not only found it yet, by maybe I have not asked "the right questions". 🤔❤️😘
    By the way, I was wondering if such particles of metals are in our body already applied?
    I don't want to my acquaintance to "throw away" the shoes, if we could save their shoes in finding this "alternative solution". I see, it will help men and wome greatly with their w-"al"-king shoes to literally be able to w-"al"-k. ❤️😊😘🤭
