Shape memory polymers (SMPs), a type of promising smart materials, are gradually applied into digital light processing (DLP) technology to realize four-dimensional (4D) printing. However, there is still a great lack of shape memory photosensitive resins suitable for DLP. In this work, novel acrylate-based photosensitive resins designed for DLP are prepared to fabricate SMP parts with tert-Butyl acrylate/1, 6-hexanediol diacrylate (tBA/HDDA) networks. The influence of crosslinker concentration on the shape memory and mechanical properties is systematically investigated. The results show that the developed SMP with 10 wt% crosslinker can withstand 16 consecutive cycles and retain extremely high shape recovery ratio of 100% even after 14 cycles, the one with 20 wt% crosslinker possesses the best shape fixity ratio of over 96%, and the storage modulus can reach up to 1.48 × 10³ MPa with 50 wt …
