Abstract

ABSTRACT The state-of-the-art review article argues high performance polyurethane nanocomposites principally designed with inimitable carbonaceous nanoparticles such as graphene, graphene derivatives, carbon nanotube, and nanodiamond. The combination of potential segmented polyurethane backbone with nanocarbon nano-additives not only enhances physical characters but also advantageously endorses temporary shape formation by storing desired energy and shape retrieval under the effect of apposite external stimuli. Here, carbonaceous nanofiller contents, dispersal, matrix-nanofiller associations, and processing have been found to influence polyurethane actuation under heat, light, voltage, radiations, and other stimuli. Ensuing high-tech shape changing polyurethane nanocomposites depicted dynamic potential for thermally conducting structures, electronics, civil, and biomedical arenas.
