Shape memory polymers (SMPs), with unique properties such as tunable elastic modulus, temporary shape locking and shape recovery upon external stimulation, are emerging as a new class of smart materials with switchable adhesion capabilities. A prominent feature of the adhesion between SMP and a sphe...
