Abstract
A shape memory elastomeric composite that has temperature-controlled, shape memory, and reversible adhesive properties, and is soft enough to confirm to an irregular surface. The composite is formed from a synthesized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane-containing thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer and poly(ϵ-caprolactone) by electrospinning the two components separately and simultaneously and then hot compacting the electrospun composition to form a dense film.
