Abstract
A triple shape memory polymeric foam that is open cell in nature and features a two phase, crosslinked SMP with a glass transition temperature of one phase at a temperature lower than a melting transition of the second phase. The resulting soft materials features high fidelity, repeatable triple shape behavior, and is useful for complex deployment using a combination of foam compression and bending.
