“…In a different approach, Lu et al [210] investigated the lowering of electrical resistivity for the commercially available epoxy-based SMP resin Veriflex ® E2 through blending carbon nanofibers with the resin and coating carbon nanopaper onto the surface of the composite. Due to the synergistic effects of fibers and paper, heat transfer was facilitated and the electrical resistivity of the SMP composite was 10 16 times lower than for pure SMP resin.…”

Shape memory polymers (SMP) belong to the class of stimuli-responsive materials and have generated significant research interest. Their capability to retain an imposed, temporary shape and to recover the initial, permanent shape upon exposure to an external stimulus depends on the "functional determinants", which in simplistic terms, can be divided into structural/morphological and processing/environmental factors. The primary aim of the first part of this review is to reflect the knowledge about these fundamental relationships. In a next step, recent advances in shape memory polymer composites are summarized. In contrast to earlier reviews, studies on the impairment of shape memory properties through various factors, such as aging, compression and hibernation, lubricants, UV light and thermo-mechanical cycling, are extensively reviewed. Apart from summarizing the state-of-the-art in SMP research, recent progress is commented.

“…Thermally-actuated SMP has been widely applied and achieved great development. Compared with other intelligent materials, SMP possesses advantages of being low cost, low density and having high shape recovery ratios and so on [10][11][12][13][14]. As shown in figure 1, the classic thermo-mechanical cycle for thermal-induced SMP contains four steps.…”

AbstractShape memory polymer (SMP) is a new kind of intelligent polymer which can be activated by an external stimulus to change and subsequently recover its original shape. Duo to this shape memory effect, SMP can be used in wide range of engineer and bio-medical applications. This paper details an application of SMP on manufacturing of a fracture fixation. The basic properties were characterized by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and the stress relaxation and fatigue were established. A SMP based fracture fixator was designed, analyzed and optimized.Finally, the fixator was fabricated and the fixed effects were verified by experiment in vitro. The performance of SMP based fixator was excellent and proved to be a potential replacement for traditional fracture fixator.

“…However, this approach inevitably requires a high level loading of conductive fillers to achieve desirable efficiency of actuation. The high loading of filler tends to result in a high viscosity and strong interactions between the SMP resin and the conductive filler, which hinders the efficient manifestation of properties of the filler through to the matrix (Lu et al, 2010b).…”

Thermomechanical performance and shape recovery behaviour of shape memory polymer nanocomposite incorporated with hexagonal boron nitridePurpose -The purpose of the study reported in this paper was to develop an effective approach to significantly improve the thermomechanical properties of shape memory polymer (SMP) nanocomposites that show fast thermally responsive shape recovery.Design/methodology/approach -Hexagonal boron nitrides (h-BNs) were incorporated into polymer matrix in an attempt to improve the thermal conductivity and thermally responsive shape recovery behaviour of SMP, respectively. Thermally actuated shape recovery behaviour was recorded and monitored instrumentally. Originality/value -The outcome of this study may help fabrication of SMP nanocomposites with fast responsive recovery behaviour.
