Abstract
Kevlar fiber and carbon fiber reinforced shape memory epoxy composites were prepared respectively. The fold-deploy shape memory properties of the composite system were studied at the temperature which was 30°C higher than the glass transition temperature of resin. The results shows that shape fixed rate and shape recovered rate of the composites are decreased with the increase of Kevlar and carbon fiber volume. The shape fixed rate of Kevlar fiber reinforced shape memory composite is higher than that of carbon fiber reinforced shape memory composite, but the shape recovered rate of the former is much lower than the latter.
