Abstract

A composition, including at least one curable structural adhesive, and at least one thermoplastic elastomer, wherein the thermoplastic elastomer is present in the structural adhesive as penetrating polymer network. Such a composition constitutes a so-called shape memory material and is suitable for reinforcing cavities in structural components, such as, for example, in automobile bodies.
