Heterogeneous Solid-State Plasticity of a Multi-Functional Metallo-Supramolecular Shape-Memory Polymer towards Arbitrary Shape Programming

Shape-memory polymers (SMPs) exhibit notable shape-shifting behaviors under environmental stimulations. In a specific shape-memory cycle, the material can be temporarily fixed at diverse geometries while recovering to the same permanent shape driven by the elastic network, which somewhat limits the...
