Indonesia memiliki potensi komoditi karet alam yang besar, dengan modifikasi kimia karet alam dapat di design menjadi material pintar seperti halnya polimer sintetik lainnya. Material pintar yang dikembangkan pada penelitian ini adalah material shape memory atau pengingat bentuk. Material pengingat bentuk yaitu material yang memiliki kemampuan mengingat bentuk permanen, diprogram untuk menjadi bentuk tertentu dibawah lingkungan tertentu (seperti suhu dan pH), dan mampu kembali ke bentuk awalnya. Material pengingat bentuk berpotensi untuk diaplikasikan menjadi sensor, aktuator, alat kesehatan maupun spare part alat transportasi. Karet alam pengingat bentuk dibuat dengan metode swelling cross linked vulkanisat karet alam di dalam larutan asam stearat  dengan suhu 75⁰C - 80⁰C dalam waterbath selama 1 jam. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mempelajari pengaruh variasi jumlah bahan pengisi (carbon black filler) pada 5 sampel (C1, C2, C3, C4, C5) terhadap sifat mekanik dan parameter pengingat bentuk. Hasil pengujian kuat tarik menunjukkan vulkanisat blanko memiliki kecenderungan nilai kuat tarik yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan vulkanisat yang mengalami treatment dengan asam stearat. Nilai shape recovery vulkanisat karet alam pengingat bentuk berkisar 76,9- 95,8% dan nilai shape fixity sebesar 14,8-26,1%.

A new system of thermoset styrene-based shape-memory polymer (SMP) filled with carbon black (CB) is investigated. To realize the electroactive stimuli of SMP, the electrical conductivity of SMP filled with various amounts of CB is characterized. The percolation threshold of electrically conductive SMP filled with CB is about 3% (volume fraction of CB), which is much lower than many other electrically conductive polymers. When applying a voltage of 30V, the shape recovery process of SMP/CB(10 vol%) can be realized in about 100s. In addition, the thermomechanical properties are also characterized by differential scanning calorimetery (DSC).

In order to develop high functionality of shape memory materials, the shape memory composites combined with TiNi wire and shape memory epoxy were prepared, and the mechanical and thermomechanical properties were studied. The results showed the addition of TiNi wire increased the Young modulus and breaking strength both at room temperature and at elevated temperature. The composites maintained the rates of shape fixity and shape recovery close to 100%. The maximum recovery stress increased with increasing TiNi wire volume fraction, and obtained almost 3 times of the matrix by adding 1vol% TiNi wire.

In this report, the synthesis of poly(ω-pentadecalactone) (PPDL) (co)polymers and their incorporation into polyurethanes (PUs) are reported. Optimal conditions for the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of ω-pentadecalactone (PDL) using dibutyltin dilaurate catalyst were established. For the synthesis of linear and crosslinked PUs, 50 kDa poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and 1,6-hexamethylenediisocyanate (HDI) were used. The obtained polyurethanes were characterized by Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier-Transform Infrared spectroscopy (AT-FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and dynamical mechanical analysis (DMA). The DMA of the selected sample showed a rubbery plateau on the storage modulus versus temperature curve predicting shape memory behavior. Indeed, good shape memory performances were obtained with shape fixity (Rf) and shape recovery (Rr) ratios.

ABSTRACT Designing shape memory polymers (SMPs) based on thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) is an essential research topic. An efficient SMP is designed with typical sea-island structured ethylene–methacrylic acid copolymer/nitrile–butadiene rubber (EMA/NBR) TPVs in which the heat-control switched phase performed by the EMA phase is related to the shape fixity ability. The results show that the heat-triggered SMPs exhibit surprising shape memory properties (shape fixity >95%, shape recovery >95%, and fast recovery speed <30 s at the switching temperature of 95 °C). Through X-ray diffraction characterization, it is seen that the shape fixity of TPVs is achieved mainly through ethylene crystallization. The switching temperature is largely determined by the melting temperature (98 °C) obtained by differential scanning calorimetery.

In this contribution, diffusion of water, acetone, and ethanol into a polymer matrix has been studied experimentally and numerically by finite element approaches. Moreover, the present study reports an assessment of different thermomechanical conditions of the shape-memory (SM) performance, for example, stress- or strain-holding times in stress- or strain-controlled thermomechanical cycles and the effect of maximum strain. According to the results presented here, the uptake of acetone in Estane is much higher than ethanol and follows classical Fickian diffusion. Further, a series of thermomechanical measurements conducted on dry and physically (hydrolytically) aged polyether urethanes revealed that incorporation of water seems to have an appreciable impact on the shape recovery ratios which can be attributed to the additional physical crosslinks. However, no obvious difference in shape fixation of dry and physically (hydrolytically) aged samples could be recognized. Furthermore, by decreasing the strain-holding time, shape recovery improves significantly. Moreover, the shape fixity is found to be independent of holding time. The shape recovery ratio decreased dramatically with an increase in the stress-holding time.

ABSTRACTThe simultaneous capability of high-strain deformation and high shape recovery ratio constitutes a great challenge in design of the shape-memory polymers. Here we report on poly(carbonate-urea-urethane)s (PCUUs) synthesized by a precursor route, based on oligo(alkylene carbonate) diols, L-lysine diisocyanate (LDI), and water vapor. When programed with a strain of εprog = 800%, the PCUU networks exhibited a one-way shape-memory effect (1W-SME) with excellent shape fixity (> 97%) and shape recovery (> 99%) ratios. The switching temperatures (Tsw) varied between 50 and 56 °C and correlated to the melting transitions of the switching domains. The obtained PCUUs capable of high-strain are interesting candidate materials for degradable biomaterials as required in smart medical devices.

Shape memory polymers (SMP) are a class of stimuli-responsive materials that are able to respond to external stimulus such as heat by altering their shape. Bio-compatible SMPs have a number of advantages over existing SMP materials and are being studied extensively for biomedical and clinical applications. Polymer blending has proved to be an effective method to improve the mechanical properties of polymers (such as tensile strength and toughness) as well as shape memory properties. In this study, we investigate the effect of blending two bio compatible polymers, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), a polymer with a high toughness and percent elongation, and poly-lactic acid (PLA), a stiff and strong polymer. The thermal, mechanical and thermo-mechanical (shape memory) properties of TPU/PLA blends were characterized in the following weight percent compositions: 80/20, 65/35, and 50/50 TPU/PLA. The TPU/PLA SMP blending was achieved with melt-blending and the tensile samples were fabricated with compression molding. The mechanical properties of each blend were studied at three different temperatures. The following thermo-mechanical (or shape memory) properties were also studied at each temperature: the shape fixity rate (Rf), shape recovery rate (Rr) and the effect of recovery temperature on the shape memory behavior. The microstructure of the polymer blends were investigated with an environmental scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that the glass transition temperatures of the blends were similar to pure PLA. The toughness of the SMP blend increased with increasing TPU concentration and the tensile strength of the blend increased with PLA composition. The shape fixity rate of the TPU/PLA blend increased with increasing TPU content and the shape recovery rate increased with increasing deformation and recovery temperature. The various TPU/PLA SMP blends characterized in this study have the potential to be developed further for specific biomedical and clinical applications.
