Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Shape‐reprogramming in a polymer is demonstrated, where prescribed 3D geometric information can be encoded, decoded, erased, and re‐encoded. In essence, the shape‐reprogrammable polymer (SRP) acts as computer hardware that can be reformatted and reprogrammed repeatedly. Such SRPs have the potential to be repurposed directly without going through material disposal and recycling.
