Flexon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Flexon is the trademark for a shape memory alloy of titanium that is used to make eyeglass frames. This alloy has special properties that make it light and extremely flexible. The metal can be bent to a significant degree, and when released it will return to its original shape.

It was developed by The Beta Group and bought by Marchon Eyewear in 1995. It is also used in the Nike Vision product line.
