Nitinol in 1959: Buehler NOL 뿯½ Buehler NOL

This atlas treats Nitinol as a system: mill route, coatings, tests and the cavity it sits in. Conductivity note: ~10–18 W/m·K. Insulation score 12/100 is relative to 32 entries — metals lose, VIPs and aerogels win. Fire letter in editorial use: A1 metal. Do not equate A1 with “safe in a blaze” or E with “illegal”. Assemblies decide.

Origin: NOL 1959 Buehler, United States. The process chapter follows feedstock → conversion → forming → finish → install. Uses span buildings to defence / safety. Pairings matter: titanium. Circularity mark 36/100. Ask which scrap, which certificate, which year. Related atlas entries, a short glossary, and three threads that keep Nitinol honest.

The medical metal without the phase trick. Another lab celebrity with thinner products. EN 13501-1 reaction-to-fire letter (A1–F), not a wall rating. Thermal conductivity in W/m·K. Lower means better bulk insulation. Declared performance after blowing-agent or moisture drift. The zone where heat or chemistry changes the datasheet.
