چکیده
Supercritical CO 2 blown foams of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) covalent networks are developed through a two-step strategy by taking advantage the thermo-reversible Diels–Alder cycloaddition between furan and maleimide.

Shape-memory NiTi–Nb foams
A new powder metallurgy technique for creating porous NiTi is demonstrated, combining liquid phase sintering of prealloyed NiTi powders by Nb additions and pore creation by NaCl space-holders. The resulting foams exhibit well-densified NiTi–Nb walls surrounding interconnected pores created by the space-holder, with controlled fraction, size, and shape. Only small amounts of Nb (3 at.%) are need...
متن کاملShape Memory Polymer Foams for Biomedical Devices
Developed in last decade, the shape memory polymers (SMP) have been gaining widespread attention for new product innovation. They are lightweight, have a high strain/shape recovery ability, are easy to process, and required properties can be tailored for a variety of applications. Recently a number of medical applications have been considered and investigated for polyurethane-based SMP material...
متن کاملShape Memory Behavior of PET Foams
Shape memory properties of PET (polyethylene-terephthalate) foams have been evaluated for two different foam densities. Samples were subjected to multiple memory-recovery cycles along three different directions to measure the effect of foam anisotropy on static mechanical and shape memory properties. The memory cycle was performed by uniaxial compression tests at room temperature. Despite these...
متن کاملShape memory poly(3-caprolactone)-co-poly(ethylene glycol) foams with body temperature triggering and two-way actuation†
We describe the fabrication of porous foams with shape memory triggering at body temperature. Employing a modified porogenleaching technique, functionalized poly(3-caprolactone) (PCL) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) macromers are crosslinked via thiol–ene chemistry to generate highly porous foam scaffolds with shape memory capacity. The temperature at which shape change of these scaffolds occur...
متن کاملCovalent adaptable networks: smart, reconfigurable and responsive network systems.
Covalently crosslinked materials, classically referred to as thermosets, represent a broad class of elastic materials that readily retain their shape and molecular architecture through covalent bonds that are ubiquitous throughout the network structure. These materials, in particular in their swollen gel state, have been widely used as stimuli responsive materials with their ability to change v...
