Superelastic alloy that functions in extreme temperatures could aid space exploration

Researchers at Tohoku University have developed a titanium-aluminum (Ti-Al)-based superelastic alloy. This new material is not only lightweight but also strong, offering the unique superelastic capability to function across a broad temperature range—from as low as −269°C, the temperature of liquid helium, to +127°C, which is above the boiling point of water.
