Abstract:Shape memory polymers (SMPs) have aroused much attention owing to their large deformation and programmability features. Nevertheless, the unsatisfactory toughness and brittleness of SMPs still restrict their practical intelligent applications, e.g., textiles, flexible electronics, and metamaterials. This study employed nature-derived nanocelluloses (NCs) as the reinforcement to fabricate shape memory epoxy-based nanocomposites (SMEPNs). An acetylation modification approach was further proposed to ameliorate th… Show more
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.
