1959
Buehler NOL
William Buehler’s team at Naval Ordnance Lab named NiTiNOL.
니티놀 did not arrive as a finished commodity. NOL 1959 Buehler around United States still explains who makes it and which tests it sits in.
Ten dated points, five eras and three milestones below are the spine — not a complete industrial history.
