This invention relates to chemical polymer compositions, methods of synthesis, and fabrication methods for devices regarding polymers capable of displaying shape memory behavior (SMPs) and which can first be polymerized to a linear or branched polymeric structure, having thermoplastic properties, subsequently processed into a device through processes typical of polymer melts, solutions, and dispersions and then crossed linked to a shape memory thermoset polymer retaining the processed shape.

A multi(meth)acrylate-functionalized oligomer has a polyurethane backbone, a plurality of (meth)acrylate groups pendant to the polyurethane backbone, and one or more terminal (meth)acrylate groups. The oligomer contains a) at least one multi(meth)acrylate-functionalized segment having at least two pendant (meth)acrylate groups, b) urethane-containing segments, c) at least one end-cap segment having at least one (meth)acrylate group, and, optionally, d) a chain-extending segment (such as a non-polymeric aliphatic segment, polyether-containing segment, polyester-containing segment, polydiene-containing segment, polycarbonate-containing segment or polyorganosiloxane-containing segment). At least one multi(meth)acrylate-functionalized segment is located at a pendant position and at least one (meth)acrylate group is present at one or more terminal positions of the oligomer. The multi(meth)acrylate-functionalized oligomers are useful in compositions which can be cured, including by photocuring, to provide polymeric articles. The oligomer may be a reaction product of a diisocyanate, a diol or triol compound comprising, respectively, two or three (meth)acrylate groups, and an end-capping compound.
