A Review of Shape Memory Polymers and Composites: Mechanisms, Materials, and Applications

Yuliang Xia et al.

Summary: SMPs and SMPCs, as stimuli-responsive polymers, have broad application prospects in multiple fields with features of large recoverable deformation, enhanced mechanical properties, and controllable remote actuation. These materials combine functional, reversible, multiple, and controllable shape recovery processes, applicable in aerospace engineering, biomedical devices, flexible electronics, and soft robotics among others.

Ultra-Stretchable, Variable Modulus, Shape Memory Multi-Purpose Low Hysteresis Hydrogel Derived from Solvent-Induced Dynamic Micelle Sea-Island Structure

Yanyan Li et al.

Summary: A novel type of hydrogel with unique properties such as ultra-stretchability, variable modulus, toughness, low hysteresis, transparency, and shape memory was prepared through copolymerization of acrylamide and acryloyl Pluronic 127. The new strategy of using solvent-induced crystallization and matrix volume phase transition to achieve variable modulus and shape memory is a purely physical process that can be performed cyclically. This design highlights the important role of PF127-DA micelles in optimizing mechanical properties and intelligence for various applications such as stress sensors, damping pads, and mechanical bearing.

Magnetically Guidable Proteinaceous Adhesive Microbots for Targeted Locoregional Therapeutics Delivery in a Highly Dynamic Environment of Esophagus

Hyun Sun Choi et al.

Summary: The esophagus is a highly dynamic environment where targeting drug delivery can be compromised due to turbulent processes. Magnetically guidable drug vehicles using bioengineered mussel adhesive protein (MAP) were proposed to achieve localized delivery of therapeutic drugs to target sites. The fabricated microfluidic MAP@IO MPs were successfully targeted and retained in the esophagus, showing effective drug release and anticancer activity with excellent biocompatibility. This approach provides an intelligent modular strategy for targeted therapeutic delivery in tubular organs like the esophagus.

High Energy Density Shape Memory Polymers Using Strain-Induced Supramolecular Nanostructures

Christopher B. Cooper et al.

Summary: Shape memory polymers are promising materials due to their large extensibility and shape recovery, but are limited by low energy densities. A new approach based on strain-induced supramolecular nanostructures has been developed to achieve high energy density shape memory polymers, storing large amounts of entropic energy.

Shape-memory balloon offering simultaneous thermo/chemotherapies to improve anti-osteosarcoma efficacy

Sosuke Ouchi et al.

Summary: This study introduces a shape-memory balloon made of biodegradable materials for improving bone cement injection efficiency and providing postoperative local thermo/chemotherapy for bone tumors. The balloon can be safely inflated, deliver drugs effectively, and maintain constant local dosing with a prolonged effect. It shows a promising killing effect on osteosarcoma cells through controlled drug release and heat generation mechanisms.

Melt-Processable Shape-Memory Elastomers Containing Bisurea Segments

Daniel M. Krajovic et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates a novel shape-memory polymer material that is melt-recyclable, prepared using catalyst-free isocyanate chemistry, with high processability and minimal performance loss. Compared to traditional poly(caprolactone) homopolymers, the new material shows better elastic performance and stress relaxation characteristics. Furthermore, the shape-memory properties of the material remain excellent even after multiple recycling processes.

Addition of glycerol enhances the flexibility of gelatin hydrogel sheets; application for in utero tissue engineering

Miho Watanabe et al.

Summary: This study aimed to produce flexible gelatin sheets by adding various plasticizers with different molecular weights and evaluating their flexibility, sustainability, and potential clinical utility. Gelatin sheets with low-MW plasticizers showed improved flexibility, and wet gelatin sheets containing plasticizers had higher tensile strength than dry gelatin sheets. The findings suggest potential applications for flexible gelatin sheets in tissue engineering.
