The Influence of Water and Solvent Uptake on Functional Properties of Shape-Memory Polymers
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 exam...
