Bilayer Bending Actuators Based on Semicrystalline Polyurethanes with Large Thermal‐Expansion Coefficients
Thermoresponsive polymer‐based bilayer bending actuators rely on the dissimilar thermal expansion of the polymers that form the two layers. To maximize the heat‐induced change in curvature, the thermal expansion shall be large in one and small in the other material. Semicrystalline polymers display...
