Two-Way Reversible Shape Memory in a Semicrystalline Network
Abstract
Cooling-induced crystallization of cross-linked poly(cyclooctene) films under a tensile load results in significant elongation and subsequent heating to melt the network reverses this elongation (contracting), yielding a net two-way shape memory (2W-SM) effect. The influence of cross-linking density on the thermal transitions, mechanical properties, and the related 2W-SM effect was studied by varying the concentration of cross-linking agent dicumyl peroxide (DCP) and using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), gel fraction measurements, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and customized 2W-SM analysis. The latter showed that there is crystallization-induced elongation on cooling and melting-induced shrinkage on heating (2W-SM), with lower cross-link density leading to higher elongation at the same applied stress. For a given cross-link density, however, increasing the tensile stress applied during cooling resulted in greater stress-induced crystallization. We further observed that the onset temperatures for elongation on cooling ( T c ) and contraction on heating ( T m ) shifted to higher temperatures with decreasing cross-link density. Similarly, the degree of molecular orientation achieved upon deformation was found to increase with decreasing cross-link density. The impact of stress on the 2W-SM effect was examined using wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), revealing a transition from bimodal to unimodal orientation. As the crystalline structure evolves from bimodal (low stress) to unimodal (high stress), the crystallization occurs along a single preferred orientation thus inducing greater elongation along the stretching direction. We anticipate that the observed 2W-SM property in a semicrystalline network will enable applications heretofore possible only with costly shape memory alloys and liquid crystalline elastomers.

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.
