A technology based on shape memory materials can be a solution to rapidly disassembling useful components in electrical and electronic products for recycling or repair purposes. Smart materials, metal alloys or polymers, are utilized for “snap-fit” connectors that can be heated or cooled to automatically transform their shape, allowing the component to easily be removed for recycling or replacing.
