Description
Summary:This report covers the experimental investigation of the shape memory effect of low melt-flow index thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) 262A. Several tests were conducted to observe how TPU 262A recovers from different forms of plastic deformation made at room temperature. Results concluded that significant shape recovery is achievable when the material is heated past its melting point, but within a certain range.
