AB In this work, a study on the dual-shape and triple-shape memory response  of poly(ethylene-co-methacrylic acid) copolymer, EMAA, and its  counterpart neutralized with sodium salt, EMAA-Na has been report.  Moreover, both matrices were reinforced with silica nanoparticles in  different amount. Morphological, thermal and mechanical properties were  studied confirming the good dispersion of the nanoparticles into both  polymeric matrices. The addition of silica nanoparticles increases the  mechanical response of both polymeric matrices without affecting their  shape memory response leading to a possible increasing use of both  polymers in the industry. Moreover, the ionomeric polymer reinforced  with 1 wt.% silica nanoparticles present excellent thermally activated  triple-shape memory response.
