The advent of nanotechnology has escalated the quest for novel 2‐D nanomaterials (NMs) with the capability of surpassing all known advantages of graphene (GN), and more, resulting in the recent discovery of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2). MoS2 is a 2‐D sheet‐like NM, possessing unique layered “sandwich” architecture, in addition to chemical, electronic, and optical features similar to those of GN, thereby expanding their scope of applications for transistors, solar cells, catalysts, sensors, and so on. The embedment of MoS2 inside polymeric substrates (PP, PEG, epoxy, and so on), have resulted in the construction of MoS2 polymer nanoarchitectures exhibiting superior mechanical, thermal, and flame retardant features with multifunctional and versatile applications. Hence, this elucidation discusses recently emerging research activities in MoS2 polymeric nanoarchitectures and multifaceted applications.

As a result of nanotechnological advancement, parameters inducing flaws in shape memory polymers (SMP), such as weak mechanical properties, low electrical, and thermal conductivities, and so on, were mitigated through the inclusion of a versatile range of nanomaterials such as montmorillonites, carbon nanotubes, graphene and derivatives, cellulose nanocrystals, carbon nanofibers, and so on, thereby forming shape memory polymeric nanoarchitectures (SMPNs). Hence, this work elucidates most recently emerging advancements on multifunctional SMPNs filled by differing nanoparticulates. Varying multifunctional SMPNs exhibit responsivity to varying forms of stimulation strategies, including thermal responsivity, electroactivated, alternating magnetic field responsivity, light sensitivity, and water induced SMPs. Therefore, this article presents very recently emerging advancements in the construction, characterization, properties, and multifunctional applications of stimuliresponsive SMPNs, with special emphasis on functional and stimuli-responsive SMPNs. Furthermore, important functions of SMPNs such as stimuli-memory effect and self-mending abilities, as well as prospective strategies for future progress of these materials are highlighted.
