The study explores the selective shape memory capabilities of CNT doped nanocomposites with Digital Light Processing. The ratio of rigid and elastic resins affects the glass transition temperature and electrical conductivity of the material. Selective shape memory activation by Joule's heating has shown promising results with shape recovery ratios above 75% in every case.
The capabilities of Digital Light Processed CNT doped nanocomposites for electrothermally triggered selective shape memory have been explored. Here, selective shape memory enables fixing the temporary shape and recovering the original one of different regions of a specimen individually, without affecting the other regions. In this regard, the shape memory capabilities of different matrices based on mixtures of rigid and elastic resins, consisting in hard segments (HS) and soft segments (SS), respectively, doped with CNTs have been investigated. A decrease in the HS:SS ratio leads to a decrease in the glass transition temperature, which constitutes the transformation temperature needed for fixing the temporary shape and recovering the original one. However, the electrical conductivity experiences a sudden drop, reaching values below the percolation threshold at 0:100 samples. Therefore, only the 100:0 and 80:20 samples were valid for shape memory triggered by Joule's effect. Furthermore, selective shape memory tests were conducted by placing different electrodes throughout the material by dividing the specimen in one, two or three individual regions that could be activated selectively. Here, it has been observed that the shape recovery ratio was above 75% in every case, proving the potential of the proposed materials and technique for selective shape memory activation by Joule's heating.
