Abstract Dynamic mechanical measurements were performed with styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) block copolymers, Kraton D-1101 and D-l 102. Isochronal data were obtained from −130 to 85°C in the tensile mode at 1 Hz and from 60 to 160°C in the shear mode at 1 rad/s. The isothermal measurements were also performed at 60, 90, 120, 140, and 160°C in the frequency range of 0.0316 to 100 rad/s. The results suggest that the two polymers have different morphologies although the styrene content and the diblock content are about the same for both polymers. Kraton D-1101, which has 1.5 times higher molecular weight, has 3–5 times higher rubbery modulus, compared to D-1102. The lower molecular weight polymer, D-1102, appears to have a larger amount of the mixed phase at the boundary. This is suggest by the lower temperature of the “domain disruption”, Tdd and the higher magnitude of tan δ at Tdd. This explains the difference in the rubbery moduli of the two polymers.

A hierarchical layered structure was generated using a polymer blend of polystyrene/poly(styrene–butadiene–styrene). Benefiting from the hierarchical lamellar structure, the resulting strength, stiffness and toughness were simultaneously enhanced.

The shape memory composite (SMC) with shape memory alloy (SMA) and shape memory polymer (SMP) was fabricated, and the two-way bending deformation and recovery force were investigated. The results obtained can be summarized as follows. (1) Two kinds of SMA tapes which show the shape memory effect and superelasticity were heat-treated to memorize the round shape, respectively. The shape-memorized round SMA tapes were sandwiched between the SMP sheets, and the SMC belt was fabricated. (2) The two-way bending deformation with an angle of 56 degrees is observed during heating and cooling. (3) If the SMC belt is heated and cooled by keeping the form, recovery force increases during heating and decreases during cooling.

In this paper, first we investigate the heating-responsive shape memory effect in an acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). Subsequently, after surface treatment (via dipping in acetone/water solution of different concentrations and for different dipping time) of pre-stretched samples, we demonstrate the feasibility to form strip shaped wrinkles atop the surface upon heating of pre-stretched ABS for shape recovery. The influential factors, such as acetone concentration and dipping time in surface treatment, are revealed and discussed.

Various polyurethane-based shape memory polymer was synthesized using polycaprolactone (PCL) as soft segment and, hexamethylene diisocyanate (HMDI) and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) as the hard segments. Palm kernel oil-based polyol was used to replace part of the petroleum-based polyol due to the increasing demand on renewable resources as a result of environmental awareness. The synthesis has been carried out using two step polymerization method. The effects of varying the molar ratio of IPDI/HMDI on material properties such as crystallinity, transition temperature, morphology, shape memory effect and tensile strength were investigated by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), shape memory test and tensile test. A high IPDI content in SMPU results in better shape memory effect, whereas increasing HMDI content leads to a better chain flexibility. In this work, the incorporation of IPDI contributes to the formation of phase separation which enhance the formation of crystalline soft segment structure while the incorporation of HMDI as isocyanate tend to promote phase mixing which enhance the chain flexibility of the SMPU backbone.
