• Mechanisms of the Shape Memory Effect in Polymeric Materials (2013, background): “being programmed into a “Z” shape and then immersed into room temperature water, water-induced shape recovery appears in a step by step fashion [101].”
• Cooling-/water-responsive shape memory hybrids (2012, result): “The speed of water-induced shape recovery observed here is comparable to some water-/solvent-responsive SMPs previously reported in the literature [15–17], while the shape recovery speed upon cooling is also comparable to some previously reported heating-responsive SMPs [4,5,7].”
• A Brief Review of Stimulus-active Polymers Responsive to Thermal, Light, Magnetic, Electric, and Water/Solvent Stimuli (2010, background): “Water-active SME can be obtained on deformed thermal-active SMPs, because water molecules have plasticizing effect on polymeric materials, and can then increase the flexibility of macromolecule chains of thermal-active SMPs (Yang et al., 2004, 2005, 2006; Huang and Yang, 2005; Leng et al., 2007b; Lv”
