A study of shape memory effect in hydrogel/polyethylene glycol hybrid by Luke, Pennefather Pyne

“…Brief experiments were carried out and results show that HG/PEG hybrids do not experience volume expansion when heated above melting temperature of hybrid. Hybrids containing high weight percentage of PEG (> ~200 wt% of PEG) showed thermo-responsive shape memory effect, while hybrids containing lower weight percentage of PEG (< 100 wt% of PEG) became hard and brittle. …”
