Shape recovery and irrecoverable strain control in polyurethane shape-memory polymer.
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 shape between the shape under the maximum stress and the primary shape. Irrecoverable strain control can be applied to the fabrication of a shape-...
متن کاملShape xity and shape recovery of polyurethane shape-memory polymer foams
The thermomechanical properties of polyurethane shape memory polymer (SMP) foams were investigated experimentally. The results obtained can be summarized as follows. (1) By cooling the foam after compressive deformation at high temperature, stress decreases and the deformed shape is xed. Stress decreases markedly in the region of temperature below the glass transition temperature Tg during th...
متن کاملA Shape Memory Polymer with Improved Shape Recovery
Thermally actuated shape memory polymers (SMPs) interest, both academically and industrially, due to their ability to memorize a permanent shape that is set during processing and a temporary shape that is later programmed by manipulation above a critical temperature, either Tg or Tm. However, the thermal triggering process for SMPs is usually retarded compared to that of shape memory alloys, be...
متن کاملShape-Memory Polymer Composites
The development of shape-memory polymer composites (SMPCs) enables high recovery stress levels as well as novel functions such as electrical conductivity, magnetism, and biofunctionality. In this review chapter the substantial enhancement in mechanical properties of shape-memory polymers (SMPs) by incorporating small amounts of stiff fillers will be highlighted exemplarily for clay and polyhedr...
متن کاملRecent advances in polymer shape memory
Traditional shape memory polymers (SMPs) are those capable of memorizing a temporary shape and recovering to the permanent shape upon heating. Although such a basic concept has been known for half a century, recent progresses have challenged the conventional understanding of the polymer shape memory effect and significantly expanded the practical potential of SMPs. In this article, notable rece...
