Shape Memory Polymer NGX5520

Ether Type


Shape-memory polymers (SMPs) are an emerging class of “smart materials” that have dual-shape capability. It is a stimuli-responsive material with the ability to alter a programmed shape to its original shape upon triggering an appropriate stimulus. Various types of stimuli-responsive SMPs such as thermal, light, pH and moisture have
been used in textiles for enhancing or attaining some smart properties. SMPs have been widely investigated within the biomedicine and aerospace industries.

APPLICATIONS:

Shape Memory Polymer (SMP) has a myriad of advanced applications amongst different fields, ranging from daily uses like textile all the way to biomedicals. These applications include smart catheter, drug-delivery systems, biosensors, auto-repairing automobile parts, smart textile, self-healing materials, smart suture, artificial organs like muscles, and more.
