Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of Shape Memory Polymers Programmed below Glass Transition Temperature
An epoxy-based shape memory polymer (SMP) is synthesized and examined for its deterioration in shape fixity due to springback and isothermal viscoelastic recovery at different ambient temperatures. Shape fixity depends not only on material properties but also on programming conditions. A constitutiv...
