Shape‐Memory Polymers: Multifunctional Shape‐Memory Polymers (Adv. Mater. 31/2010)

Advanced Materials, 2010
AbstractThe thermally‐induced shape‐memory effect (SME) is the capability of a material to change its shape in a predefined way in response to heat. In shape‐memory polymers (SMP) this shape change is the entropy‐driven recovery of a mechanical deformation, which was obtained before by application of external stress and was temporarily fixed by ...

Superhydrophobic Shape Memory Polymer Arrays with Switchable Isotropic/Anisotropic Wetting

, 2018
Smart surfaces with tunable wettability have aroused much attention in the past few years. However, to obtain a surface that can reversibly transit between the lotus‐leaf‐like superhydrophobic isotropic and rice‐leaf‐like superhydrophobic anisotropic ...

Shape memory polymer nanocomposites

Acta Materialia, 2002
The paper describes the fabrication and characterization of composites with a shape memory polymer matrix and SiC nanoparticulate reinforcements. Composites based on a SMP matrix are active materials capable of recovering relatively large mechanical strains due to the application of heat.
