Answers
Light activated Polymers (LAPs) have attracted increasing attention because these materials tend to change their structure and behavior in response to the light exposure that serves as remote, instant and precisely controllable stimulus which enables non-contact control of material shape and behavior through simple variation in wavelength, light intensity and spatially controlled exposure.
Answer:
Light activated polymers (LAPs) are a special type of Shape Memory Polymers.
Explanation:
The LAPs are widely attracted in areas and the materials constantly change its shape and dimensions or behaviours based on the light exposures. They are differed from other actively triggered polymers like heat, or electricity, or humidity.
They are considered to be the special type of the Shape memory of the polymers, as it constantly changing its shape and behaviors. Some of the examples are patterns used for designing the surfaces, photo-origami, shaping of induced memory, etc.
