Inhaltsangabe

Shape Memory Polymer derived Nanocomposites: Materials, Properties, and Applications summarizes fundamentals and applications of shape memory polymer derived nanocomposites. The book presents a state-of-the-art assessment, including updates on their flexibility, durability, heat stability, shape deformability, and the shape memory features of these polymers. Essential categories of the stimuli-responsive polymer-based nanocomposites are discussed in terms of recent scientific literature, and subsequent sections of the book are dedicated to the potential of shape memory polymer-based nanocomposite in various technical fields.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Shape Memory Polymer-Derived Nanocomposites: Materials, Properties, and Applications provides a thorough overview of the latest advances in nanocomposites incorporating shape memory polymers, covering fundamentals, properties, design, fabrication, applications, and modelling and simulation. The book begins by introducing the mechanism, structure, and properties or shape memory polymers, and their development in nanocomposite materials. This is followed by in-depth coverage of the key categories of shape memory materials, including polyurethane, epoxy, polyester, polystyrene, and trans-polyisoprene. The novel area of shape memory nanocomposite sponges is also discussed. Subsequent chapters focus on key applications across aerospace, electromagnetic interference shielding, sensors, energy storage, electronics, smart textiles, and biomedicine. This is supported by a chapter examining modelling and simulation for shape memory nanocomposites. The final chapter highlights key trends or areas of opportunity, including 3D and 4D printing, environmental impact, and green shape memory nanocomposites. This is a useful resource for researchers and advanced students across nanotechnology, polymer science, composite materials, chemistry, electronics, biomedicine, materials science, and engineering, as well as scientists, engineers, and R&D professionals in an industrial setting with an interest in shape memory polymers and their nanocomposites.
