A tough shape memory polymer with triple shape memory and two-way shape memory properties
Abstract
In this study, a tough shape memory polymer network based on polydopamine, poly(ε-caprolactone) and diisocyanate was synthesized in three steps. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to confirm the synthesis process. The tensile tests demonstrated the good mechanical properties of the materials with a tensile modulus and tensile strength reaching 362 and 43 MPa, respectively, at room temperature. The thermal properties of the polymer networks were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry and dynamic mechanical analysis. With two broad transition temperatures, the dual-shape memory properties were greatly affected by the deformation temperature, which was investigated in detail. Moreover, the polymers also showed good triple-shape memory and two-way shape memory effects.

The two-way SME under constant stress approach was extended to triple SMPs, where a reversible SME was shown over two transition temperatures, with reversible switching between three shapes under applied stress.
“The approach was even extended to triple SMPs in [114-117], where a reversible SME was shown over two transition temperatures, with a reversible switching between three shapes under an applied stress.”

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.
