The shape memory composite (SMC) with shape memory alloy (SMA) and shape memory polymer (SMP) was fabricated, and the two-way bending deformation and recovery force were investigated. The results obtained can be summarized as follows. (1) Two kinds of SMA tapes which show the shape memory effect and superelasticity were heat-treated to memorize the round shape, respectively. The shape-memorized round SMA tapes were sandwiched between the SMP sheets, and the SMC belt was fabricated. (2) The two-way bending deformation with an angle of 56 degrees is observed during heating and cooling. (3) If the SMC belt is heated and cooled by keeping the form, recovery force increases during heating and decreases during cooling.

An interest in NiTi alloys with near stoichiometric composition (55 NiTi) has intensified since they were found to exhibit a unique mechanical shape memory effect at the Naval Ordnance Laboratory some twelve years ago (thus refered to as NITINOL alloys). Since then, the microstructural mechanisms associated with the shape memory effect have been investigated and several interesting engineering applications have appeared.The shape memory effect implies that the alloy deformed from an initial shape will spontaneously return to that initial state upon heating. This behavior is reported to be related to a diffusionless shear transformation which takes place between similar but slightly different CsCl type structures.
