Shape memory polymers (SMPs), a type of promising smart materials, are gradually applied into digital light processing (DLP) technology to realize four-dimensional (4D) printing. However, there is still a great lack of shape memory photosensitive resins suitable for DLP. In this work, novel acrylate...
