Fast IR-Actuated Shape-Memory Polymers Using in Situ Silver Nanoparticle-Grafted Cellulose Nanocrystals

Abstract: In recent years, shape-memory polymers (SMPs) have gained a key position in the realm of actuating applications from daily life products to biomedical and aeronautic devices. Most of these SMPs rely mainly on shape changes upon direct heat exposure or after stimulus conversion (e.g., magnetic field and light) to heat, but this concept remains significantly limited when both remote control and fine actuation are demanded. In the present study, we propose to design plasmonic silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) grafted … Show more

“…Additionally, modest shape recovery values of 90% were obtained. [ 90 ] Another antimicrobial shape‐memory polymer was reported by Zhang et al who used a diketopyrrolopyrrole‐based conjugated polymer as photothermal filler in a polycaprolactone‐ co ‐polyurethane matrix. Interestingly, the antibacterial effect of the polymer is only active upon irradiation with the near‐infrared light (808 nm) used for the recovery of the permanent shape, showing that their antibacterial effect is photothermally induced.…”

“…Poly(ε‐Caprolactone) (PCL) : The photothermal effect has also been realized in shape‐memory polymers, such as semicrystalline biodegradable poly(ε‐caprolactone). For instance, Toncheva et al proposed plasmonic silver nanoparticles grafted onto cellulose nanocrystals as an efficient system for remote light‐induced actuation, which could be incorporated into PCL ( Figure a) . The photothermal effect upon irradiation with infrared (IR) light allowed the materials to return to their initial shape by melting the crystalline phases within the polymer, which released the stress stored within the temporary shape.…”

“…Near-infrared (NIR) light is suitable for in vivo biomedical applications because of the excellent tissue penetration [27]. Therefore, many efforts have been made to develop NIR-induced SMP composites based on the addition of photothermal fillers such as carbon nanotubes, graphene, and gold nanorods [28][29][30][31]. These SMP composites absorb NIR light and convert the optical energy into heat to realise the shape recovery of the SMP composites.…”
