Development of copper-zinc-tin shape memory alloy by electroless plating

Metal alloys which have the ability to return to their previous shape after application of heat are termed shape memory alloys (SMA). This phenomenon is driven by what is called a thermoelastic martensitic transformation, causing the crystal structure to undergo change at a certain temperature. At l...
