Standard Veriflex is a two-part, fully formable thermoset shape memory polymer (SMP) resin system with very unique “memory” properties.

Heated above its activation temperature, Veriflex changes from a rigid polymer to a very elastic state. In this elastic state, it can be twisted, pulled, bent, and stretched, reaching up to 200% elongation. If cooled while constrained in the new shape, the polymer hardens and can maintain its deformed configuration indefinitely. When heated above its activation temperature again, this polymer returns to the shape in which it was cured. This process can be repeated indefinitely without loss of the memory shape or degradation of the material.

Thermochromic Veriflex is only available in the styrene-based version of the resin and allows for easier use and functionality of the cured resin. When the thermochromic version of Veriflex has reached its transition temperature, it changes color to signal its readiness to be molded, shaped, and formed. This eliminates possible problems with heating the material too much or not enough.

Both standard and thermochromic Veriflex resins are engineered with a glass transition temperature (T_g) of 62° C.
