摘要
Thermally stimulated novel shape memory polymer blend of ethylene octene copolymer (EOC) and ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) has been developed. This novel polyolefinic blends possess superior shape memory behaviour in presence of heat. Shape memory behaviour study at 60 degrees C of the blends shows that the blends containing higher fraction of EPDM exhibits superior shape memory behaviour in terms of shape fixity (f) and shape recovery ratio (RR). Structural similarities of the pristine components lead to higher degree of compatibility which also results better physicomechanical behaviour. Lower modulus value followed by low relaxation ratio of the blend containing higher proportion of EPDM also supports the superior shape memory behaviour of the EPDM rich blend. Thus EPDM rich blend shows better shape memory effect among the various blends. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
