Graphical Abstract

Vergissmeinnicht: Die Einführung von Nanopartikeln verbessert üblicherweise die mechanischen Eigenschaften von Polymeren auf Kosten ihres Formgedächtnisses. Ein neuer Ansatz löst dieses Problem durch Vernetzen von funktionalisierten Poly(ethylenglycol)-Gruppen auf Siliciumdioxid-Nanopartikeln (siehe Bild).
