Abstract
Two series of benzoxazines were synthesized from o-, m-, and p-methoxyphenols, two polyetheramines with different molecular weights, and formaldehyde. The glass transition temperatures (Tgs) of m-methoxyphenol-based polybenzoxazines are respectively higher than those of o- and p-methoxyphenol-based counterparts. The polybenzoxazines exhibit thermally induced one-way dual-shape memory behavior based on Tg, and the o- and p-methoxyphenol-based polybenzoxazines exhibit higher shape memory performance than m-methoxyphenol-based counterparts under motion constraints.
