Prolonged recovery of 3D printed, photo-cured polylactide shape memory polymer networks
APL Bioengineering, 2020 Shape memory polymers are materials that are able to retain a deformed state until an external stimulus, most typically heat, triggers recovery to the original geometry.

Vitrimer-Like Shape Memory Polymers: Characterization and Applications in Reshaping and Manufacturing. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel), 2020 The shape memory effect (SME) refers to the ability of a material to recover its original shape, but only in the presence of a right stimulus. Most polymers, either thermo-plastic or thermoset, can have the SME, although the actual shape memory ...

Multimaterial 4D Printing with Tailorable Shape Memory Polymers
Scientific Reports, 2016 We present a new 4D printing approach that can create high resolution (up to a few microns), multimaterial shape memory polymer (SMP) architectures. The approach is based on high resolution projection microstereolithography (PμSL) and uses a family of ...
