Mechanisms of the multi-shape memory effect and temperature memory effect in shape memory polymers

Soft Matter, 2010
As recently demonstrated, after programming, thermo-responsive shape memorypolymers can exhibit the multi-shape memory effect (SME) upon heating. In addition, it is confirmed that the temperature corresponding to the maximum recovery stress in constrained recovery is roughly the temperature at which pre-deformation is conducted, a phenomenon known as ...

The enhancement of the mechanical properties and the shape memory effect for the Cu-13.0Al-4.0Ni alloy by boron addition

Journal of Alloys and Compounds, 2019
The microstructure and the shape memory effect of Cu-13.0Al-4.0Ni high temperature shape memory alloys doped with different contents of boron (0.25 wt%, 0.5 wt%, 1.0 wt%, and 2.0 wt%) were studied in this paper.

Optimization of the shape memory effect in shape memory polymers

Journal of Polymer Science Part A: Polymer Chemistry, 2011
AbstractIn this article, we show that given a thermoresponsive shape memory polymer, it is possible to alter a number of its properties, such as the recovery temperature, shape fixity ratio, maximum recovery stress, and final recovery stress (and even a right combination of some of them, e.g., the maximum recovery stress and final recovery stress ...

Shape Memory Effects

2004
Understanding shape memory requires a thermodynamic approach that takes into account the structure of the solid and the mechanical properties resulting from it. For this reason, the crystallographic and thermodynamic aspects of shape memory effects will be discussed below to the extent to which they are relevant to the development of microactuators ...

Tunable polymer multi-shape memory effect

Nature, 2010
Shape memory polymers are materials that can memorize temporary shapes and revert to their permanent shape upon exposure to an external stimulus such as heat, light, moisture or magnetic field. Such properties have enabled a variety of applications including deployable space structures, biomedical devices, adaptive optical devices, smart dry adhesives ...

Development of zwitterionic copolymers with multi-shape memory effects and moisture-sensitive shape memory effects

Journal of Materials Chemistry B, 2015
This paper describes a new kind of zwitterionic copolymer having a multi-shape memory effect and a moisture-sensitive shape memory effect from DMAPS and acrylic acid (AA). In addition to dual-SME, the copolymer also shows triple-SME and quadruple-shape-memory effect.
