Shape memory alloys, materials capable of being deformed and maintaining the deformation and additionally capable of returning to the initial position, are valued for a range of applications from actuators to flexible microdevices. Maintaining the properties that make them useful, their ability to deform and reform, requires that shape memory alloys must be protected against corrosion, in which the integration of shape memory polymers can act as a means of protection. Thus, this review is to highlight the utility of self-healing shape memory polymers as a means of corrosion inhibition. Therefore, this review discusses the benefits of utilizing self-healing shape memory polymers for the protection of shape memory, several types of self-healing polymers that could be used, means of improving or tailoring the polymers towards specific usages, and future prospects in designing a shape memory polymer for use in corrosion inhibition.
Chemical and physical data were collected from five wells and one spring on Michaud Flats in the Fort Hall Indian Reservation, southeastern Idaho, from December 1982 to July 1987. The data were collected to monitor changes in ground-water quality and to detect any migration of contaminants. *pH (standard units) *Temperature (°C) Hardness (mg/L as CaCOg) Calcium, dissolved (mg/L as Ca) Magnesium, dissolved (mg/L as Mg) Sodium, dissolved (mg/L as Na) Potassium, dissolved (mg/L as K) Chloride, dissolved (mg/L as Cl) Fluoride, dissolved (mg/L as F) Silica, dissolved (mg/L as SiC^) Nitrogen, nitrite + nitrate, dissolved (mg/L as N) Phosphorus, total (mg/L as P) Arsenic, dissolved (ug/L as As) Boron, dissolved (ug/L as B) Gross alpha, dissolved (jig/L as U-nat) Gross alpha, susp. total (ug/L as U-nat) Gross beta, dissolved (pCi/L as Cs-137) Gross beta, susp. total (pCi/L as Cs-137) Gross beta, dissolved (pCi/L as Sr/Y-90) Gross beta, susp. total (pCi/L as Sr/Y-90
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
