Title: | Chemically induced morphing in polyurethane shape memory polymer micro fibers/springs | Authors: | Wang, Chang Chun Zhao, Yong Purnawali, Hendra Huang, Wei Min Sun, Li |
Issue Date: | 2012 | Source: | Wang, C. C., Zhao, Y., Purnawali, H., Huang, W. M., & Sun, L. (2012). Chemically induced morphing in polyurethane shape memory polymer micro fibers/springs. Reactive and Functional Polymers, 72(10), 757-764. | Series/Report no.: | Reactive and functional polymers | Abstract: | Chemically induced morphing in polyurethane shape memory polymer (SMP) micro fibers/springs was investigated experimentally and theoretically. It was revealed that at the presence of water/ethanol, the release of the residual strain/stress (captured during the fabrication process of micro fibers/springs from melted polyurethane SMP) is the driving force for morphing (by means of self-winding and self-twisting/untwisting). A theoretical model was developed to explain the underlying mechanisms behind all types of observed morphing phenomena. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/99722 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/10496 |
