    This document provides an overview of shape memory polymers (SMPs). It begins with defining shape memory materials and the shape memory effect. SMPs can retain two or three shapes and are activated by heat, electricity, light, magnetism or water. The structure of SMPs relies on glass transition temperature and polymer chain entanglement/cross-linking. SMPs are compared to shape memory alloys, noting advantages like lower cost, higher strain recovery, and biocompatibility. Shape memory polyurethanes are discussed as a common SMP. Applications include biomedical, textiles, damping and structures. The conclusion discusses potential future developments in programming multiple shapes and smart textiles.

     SHAPE MEMORY POLYMERS


    • It is a polymeric smart material
    • SMP’s can retain two or sometimes three shapes
     WAYS TO ACTIVATE SHAPE MEMORY EFFECT
    • Thermo responsive shape memory effect
    • Electrical heating induced shape memory effect
    • Light induced shape memory effect
    • Magnetically induced shape memory effect
    • Water activated shape memory effect
    LITERATURE REVIEW
     M.John and G.Li
    • They investigated the possibilities of creating a self-healing shape memory polymer based on
    a foam structure
    • Reverse transforming the polymer by heating, brings the crack faces back into contact

     Q.Meng, J. Hu
    • They looked into blends to create an improved shape memory polymer
    • The time to recover is improved by increasing thermal conductivity
    • Filling conductive powder help in fabricating SMP sensitive to electricity, light and moisture

     B.Yang, W.M.Huang
    • They investigated the effect of moisture on the glass transition temperature of a
    polyurethane shape memory polymers

     J.Diani, C.Fredy, P.Gilormini


    • A new torsion device was designed and built for testing the shape fixity and shape recovery
    of shape memory polymers at large deformations
    STRUCTURE OF SMP
     SMP are compound plastics polymers that have
    a special chemical structure
     Glass transition temperature (Tg) plays
    important role in SMP
     SMP become rubbery elastic and flexible above
    Tg
     Deformed shape become fixed and shape will
    remain stable

    Shape Memory Effect in SMP relay on


    • Crystallization and cross-linking
    • Entanglement of polymer chain
    • Microstructure of polymer
    Position 1 - The polymer will be in active stage
    Position 2 - Inelastic or frozen
    Position 3 – Polymer will be hard and rigid
    Position 4 - Elastic and flexible state
    STRUCTURE OF SMP Cont..

    PARAMETERS FOR CHARACTERIZATION OF SMP’s

    • Shape or strain fixity


    • Recovery stress
    • Strain or shape recovery
    • Recovery time

    LO is the original length


    LS is maximum value of deformation
    LD is final temporary shape
    LF is the final length after shape recovery cycle.

    • Long chain polyether or polyester polyol, Soft Segment

    • Diisocyanate
    Hard Segment
    • Glycol (chain extender).
