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.
