Biobased shape memory polyurethane filled with carbon nanotubes (CNT) were prepared using two step polymerization process. The bio based shape memory polyurethane (SMPU) were composed of polycaprolactonediol, polyol based on palm oil, 4, 4’-diphenylmethane diisocyanate and 1, 4-butanediol. In this paper, CNTs has been used as fillers to introduce the electrical conductivity in the SMPU. The bio-based shape memory polyurethane shows electrical conductivity with addition of 7 wt% CNT.

Ionic polyurethane (IPU) was synthesized as shape memory materials. Poly (tetramethylene ether) glycol with 2000g/mol number average molecular weight were used as soft segment, 4,4-methylenebis (phenyl isocyanate), and 1,2-dihydroxy-3-propanesulfonic acid salt were used to compose the segment of SMP materials. The structure and properties of these IPU films were characterized by Fourier Transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, Thermal gravimetric analysis and Differential scanning calorimeter. The results showed that the glass transition temperature of the IPU increased with the increase of hard segment content. The physical properties in terms of swelling property, water absorption and ion-exchange capacity increased with the improving of sulfonic group content in IPU. The shape memory property of IPU exhibited that the shape fixity ratio and recovery rate improved remarkably with the increase of hard segment content.

The addition of gold nanorods to a commercial polyurethane enabled shape memory behavior activation via infrared irradiation. The fraction of the set strain recovered was found to be dependent on the nanorod loading and irradiation intensity. A nanocomposite consisting of gold nanorods with an aspect ratio of ~3.25 and a diameter of ~11.5 nm and the polyurethane IROGRAN PS455-203 was prepared via a simple solution blending technique. Gold loadings up to 3.2 ppm by weight were evaluated. The glass transition temperature and melting point of the hard-segment phase was slightly depressed at the highest loading evaluated. Other thermal properties were not affected by the addition of gold nanorods. Also, the thermally activated shape memory behavior of the composite material was not affected by the presence of the gold nanorods.
