Review of Magnetic Shape Memory Polymers and Magnetic Soft Materials

Magnetic soft materials (MSMs) and magnetic shape memory polymers (MSMPs) have been some of the most intensely investigated newly developed material types in last decade, thanks to great versatile potential their innovative characteristic behaviors such as remote nearly heatless transformation case MSMs. With regard a number properties recovery ratio, manufacturability, cost or programming potential, MSMs MSMPs may exceed conventional alloys polymers. Nevertheless, not yet fully touched scientific-industrial basically due lack detailed knowledge on various aspects constitutive response. Therefore, slowly but importance will undoubtedly increase near future. This review emphasizes development with specific focus role particles which affect behavior these materials. In addition, synthesis application are addressed.
