Mechanical behaviors and biomedical applications of shape memory materials: A review

open access: yesAIMS Materials Science, 2018
A shape memory material (shape memory alloy (SMA) or shape memory polymer (SMP)) can experience large deformation and recover its original shape when exposed to a specific external stimulus.

Shape-memory behavior of cross-linked semi-crystalline polymers and their blends

open access: yeseXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2015
The present study deals with thermally induced one-way and invertible two-way shape-memory effect (SME) in covalent networks on the basis of crystallizable (co)polymers and their blends and is an attempt to generalize the results of own investigation ...

Shape recovery and irrecoverable strain control in polyurethane shape-memory polymer

open access: yesScience and Technology of Advanced Materials, 2008
In shape-memory polymers, large strain can be fixed at a low temperature and thereafter recovered at a high temperature. If the shape-memory polymer is held at a high temperature for a long time, the irrecoverable strain can attain a new intermediate ...
