Responsive polymers have yet to significantly impact the marketplace. In this Perspective, we offer a glimpse of possible future industrial-scale responsive polymer. We begin by briefly reviewing two different existing polymer materials, one with high volume, excellent processability, and commercial (polyurethanes), other stimuli functional properties (liquid crystal elastomers). explore possibilities combining these disparate entities into single material. intriguing for bulk both responsivity processability that could compete in market long-established residents discuss some research roadblocks need be overcome reach lofty goal.
