...Marco Vinicio Paez Estrella; Irina Garces; Cagri Ayranci Purpose Shape memory polymers (SMPs) can temporarily store a shape and return to their permanent/original form upon the application of a stimulus. Despite their potential, SMPs large-scale implementation is still hindered due...

... flexibility and shape memory capabilities. By introducing triethyl citrate (TEC) as a plasticizer and leveraging multimaterial three-dimensional printing configurations, this research aimed to mitigate PLA’s inherent brittleness and expand its functional range. Additionally, this work sought to optimize...

...Purushottam Suryavanshi; Srushti Lekurwale; Pankaj Kumar; Santosha K. Dwivedy; Subham Banerjee Purpose This research aims to provide a innovative class of shape-memory-responsive cellulosic composites (RCC) for 4D printing, enabling self-activated, reversible shape morphing. By integrating...
