Deskripsi

Stresses are often detrimental to the mechanical properties of materials but when well controlled can lead to unusual opportunities in various technological areas. Here the authors report a digital photothermal mechanism enabled laser printing that allows freedom in stress manipulation in dynamic covalent shape memory polymers.
