Achieving shape memory: Reversible behaviors of cellulose–PU blends in wet–dry cycles
Abstract
Shape memory effect (SME) was achieved for cellulose–polyurethane (PU) blends of different compositions in wet–dry cycles, featuring that the amorphous cellulose and the PU content served as the fixing phase and the recovery phase, respectively. The dependence on the compositions of the fixity ratio and the recovery ratio was quantitatively measured by tensile tests. The morphological and thermal properties of the blends were further investigated by scanning electron microscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. The storage modulus of the blends varied reversibly in the wet–dry cycles, as determined by dynamic mechanical analysis. Furthermore, the microstructure of the blends reversibly changed correspondingly, as determined by wide‐angle X‐ray scattering diffraction and Fourier transform infrared. It was predicted that the reversible transition in different amorphous cellulose structures triggered by water led to the reversible variation in modulus as well as the wet–dry SME of the blends. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Luo et al. prepared cellulose nanowhisker/SMPU nanocomposites with outstanding water-active SME; the cellulose nanowhisker in SMPUs did not affect the intrinsic thermal-active SME of the SMPU but enabled the SMPU water-active SME.
“Basing on this idea, Luo et al. [411] prepared cellulose nanowhisker/SMPU nanocomposites with outstanding water-active SME.The cellulose nanowhisker in SMPUs did not affect the intrinsic thermal-active SME of the SMPU but enabled the SMPU water-active SME.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
