Parabolic 3D refractive lenses from shape memory polymers were manufactured and tested using monochromatic X‐rays of 10 keV. Four lenses in two sets with focal distances of about 6 and 4 m were used. The lens optical properties in terms of resolution, efficiency and gain were measured. The radiation stability test was performed. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
