        Shape memory polymers (SMPs) represent a highly special class of materials. As one representative of the intelligent polymeric systems, these materials gained significant interest in recent years. SMPs are stimuli-responsive polymers, which act as stimulants like light, temperature, PH changes, solvent changes, electrical fields or magnetic fields, and their output is strain. Also, these polymers are highly regarded as essential for fundamental research and technological innovation. The present review will provide a short overview with particular attention to structure, mechanisms and applications of SMPs, shape memory effects and, as well as the current developments and concepts for shape memory polymers. The applications of shape memory polymers can be noted in medical industries, commercial industries, S hape memory polymers (SMPs) represent a highly special class of materials.
