Shape Memory Effect Exhibited by Smectic-C Liquid Crystalline Elastomers
Abstract
It was long expected and recently shown that main-chain liquid crystalline elastomers (MC-LCEs) may serve as high performance soft actuators due to a coupling of their intrinsic characteristics of high, yet labile, ordering and network strain. Here, we present the synthesis of new siloxane-based smectic MC-LCEs. These new materials exhibit a unique thermomechanical behavior known as the shape memory effect, which has never been observed before in such LCEs. To achieve targeted transition temperatures required for facile actuation at low temperatures, specifically temperatures ranging from 15 to 65 degrees C, we have designed and prepared such elastomers incorporating two distinct mesogenic groups, termed 5H and 5tB, coupled with hydride-terminated poly(dimethylsiloxane) spacers.

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.
