Shape-reprogramming in a polymer is demonstrated, where prescribed 3D geometric information can be encoded, decoded, erased, and re-encoded. In essence, the shape-reprogrammable polymer (SRP) acts as computer hardware that can be reformatted and reprogrammed repeatedly. Such SRPs have the potential to be repurposed directly without going through material disposal and recycling.
聚合物中的形状重塑得以实现，其中可以编码、解码、擦除和重新编码规定的 3D 几何信息。从本质上讲，形状可重塑聚合物 (SRP) 充当可以反复重新格式化和重新编程的计算机硬件。这种 SRP 无需经过材料处理和回收即可直接重复使用。
