摘要

Shape memory polylactic acid (PLA)/polyethylene glycol (PEG) films with controllable thermal response temperature and dual-responsive function were developed. The developed PLA/PEG film exhibits excellent shape memory performance and can recover to its initial shape within 6 s. The shape memory PLA/PEG films achieved controllable thermal response temperature by physically modifying PLA with PEG. Compared with P-P0 (pure PLA), the thermal response temperature of P-P10 (PLA/PEG film with a mass ratio of 10/1 of PLA to PEG) was reduced by 20 °C. Based on the differences in thermal response temperature of PLA/PEG films with different PEG contents, PLA/PEG bilayer films have achieved dual-responsive shape memory function. Moderate PEG improved the mechanical properties of PLA/PEG films. Compared with P-P0, Young's modulus, breaking stress, and breaking strain of P-P10 increased by 113 MPa, 7.8 MPa, and 15.2 MPa, respectively. The thermal performance of PLA/PEG films can be controlled by PEG content. Compared with P-P0, the glass transition temperature, cold crystallization temperature, melting temperature, and thermal decomposition temperature of P-P10 are reduced by 9.8 °C, 13.8 °C, 0.6 °C, and 7.5 °C, respectively. In summary, the developed shape memory PLA/PEG films have controllable response temperature, dual-responsive function, and improved mechanical properties, showing promising application prospects in the field of flexible intelligent biomaterials.
