Shape recovery ratio after final curing and after subsequent deformation with various initial reaction times (n = 3, error bars represent standard deviation) (a). A polymer strip was partially polymerized into a planar form, deformed into a helix, and the polymerization was completed. After complete polymerization the helix was heated and flattened (b). Upon heating the strip recovers to a helix (c)
