Some New Concepts of Shape Memory Effect of Polymers [PDF]

, 2014
In this study some new concepts regarding certain aspects related to shape memory polymers are presented. A blend of polylactic acid (PLA) (80%) and polybutylene succinate (PBS) (20%) was prepared first by extrusion, then by injection molding to obtain ...

Non-Covalent Interactions in Polymers

, 2023
Non-covalent interactions are one of the key topics in modern chemical science. These inter- and intramolecular weak interactions (e.g., hydrogen, halogen, and chalcogen bonds, stacking interactions and metallophilic contacts) have a significant effect ...

Facile Synthesis of Light-Switchable Polymers with Diazocine Units in the Main Chain

, 2023
Unlike azobenzene, the photoisomerization behavior of its ethylene-bridged derivative, diazocine, has hardly been explored in synthetic polymers. In this communication, linear photoresponsive poly(thioether)s containing diazocine moieties in the polymer ...

Smart Polymers for Biomedical Applications [PDF]

Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics, 2014
Smart materials have the ability to respond to changes in their environment by variations in their molecular structure or in their physicochemical properties. Shape-memory and shape-changing polymers are examples for this class of materials, whose capability to perform stimuli-induced active movements has inspired engineers to develop heat-shrinkable ...
