Dynamic equilibria with glass transition heterogeneity and tailorable mechanics in amorphous shape memory polymers

Jingyun Liu et al.

Summary: Modeling the dynamic heterogeneity in amorphous shape memory polymers (SMPs) is a challenging task due to the complex statistical properties of strain energy distributions. In this study, the influences of temperature rates and strain rates on strain energy evolution in SMPs were investigated for the first time, taking into account the dynamic equilibria. A phase transition model incorporating Gaussian distribution statistics was proposed to study the glass transition heterogeneity and tailorable mechanics in amorphous SMPs. The analytical results were compared with experimental data, demonstrating good agreement.

Three-dimensional constitutive model for shape-memory polymers considering temperature-rate dependent behavior

Jinsu Kim et al.

Summary: A temperature-rate dependent three-dimensional constitutive model for shape-memory polymers (SMPs) was developed based on a two-phase model, which successfully described the thermomechanical behavior of SMPs. The model took into account the variation of volume fraction of each phase affected by temperature under different temperature-rate conditions and incorporated the temperature-rate dependent thermal strain. The developed constitutive model was validated by simulating the shape-memory behavior of SMPs and comparing simulation and experimental results under different temperature-rate conditions.

Interfacial Confinement in Semi-Crystalline Shape Memory Polymer Towards Sequentially Dynamic Relaxations

Jingyun Liu et al.

Summary: A new interfacial confinement model was formulated to describe the dynamic relaxation and shape memory behavior in semi-crystalline SMPs undergoing sequential phase transitions. The model successfully explained the glass transition of the amorphous phase and the melting/crystallization transitions of the crystalline phase. Experimental data validation confirmed the effectiveness of the new model, aiming to provide a new methodology for multiple shape memory effects in semi-crystalline SMPs.
