Abstract

A multicomposite shape memory polymer (SMP) with remote and selective triggering of the recovery of multiple temporary shapes in radiofrequency fields is demonstrated. Each deformed region can be independently actuated at a specific frequency based on the filler type in the region. In addition, the nanocomposite SMP exhibits multiple temporary shapes and multiple possible shape recovery routes.
