A general strategy for fabricating a double layer self-deformed
shape memory hydrogel which includes a thermo-responsive actuating layer and a
pH-responsive memorizing layer is presented. Compared with traditional shape
memory polymer systems, the temporary shape of the hydrogel could be generated by
thermo-responsive actuating layer upon the trigger of heat without the need of external
force, which could be further memorized by the pH-responsive memorizing layer.
