Imagine products that can self-assemble and transform due to their increasing functionality. Shape Memory Polyurethane is a useful chemical tool for designing these "self-reconfiguration" products, where the material itself acts as the mechanism. This innovative technology has a wide range of potential business applications, such as e-furniture that can assemble itself when needed and packaging solutions that adapt to the product. It can also be used in medical applications that are reusable and can be customized to fit around specific body parts, and in manufacturing systems for the automotive and aerospace industries. This approach to product design considers the ability to change and adapt for the user's experience.
