Skoltech researchers have investigated a promising type of composite material in terms of their shape memory behavior—how they resume their original shape following deformation if exposed to the right temperature or other conditions. The materials studied were glass fiber-reinforced epoxy-based flat laminates, produced with a technique called pultrusion. While it has considerable potential for manufacturing composites with shape memory for electronics, biomedicine, and more, the method's application to such materials is examined for the first time in the Skoltech-led study reported in Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing.
