Abstract Stimuli-sensitive hydrogels changing their volumes and shapes in response to various stimulations have potential applications multiple fields. However, these not yet been commercialized due some problems that need be overcome. One of the most significant is conventional stimuli-sensitive are usually brittle. Here we prepare extremely stretchable thermosensitive with good toughness by using polyrotaxane derivatives composed α-cyclodextrin polyethylene glycol as cross-linkers...
Hydrogels have emerged in various biomedical applications, including tissue engineering and medical devices, due to their ability imitate the natural extracellular matrix (ECM) of tissues. However, conventional static hydrogels lack dynamically respond changes surroundings withstand robust biophysical microenvironment trigger on-demand functionality such as drug release mechanical change. In contrast, multifunctional dynamic can adapt external stimuli drawn great attention recent studies. It...
Abstract Conductive hydrogels (CHs) have received significant attention for use in wearable devices because they retain their softness and flexibility while maintaining high conductivity. CHs are well suited applications skin‐contact electronics biomedical owing to biocompatibility conformality. Although highly conductive smart extensively researched, a detailed summary of the outstanding results is required comprehensive understanding. In this review, recent progress preparation fabrication...
3-D colloidal amorphous arrays prepared from two different submicron-sized silica particles, exhibit a specific structural color that remains unchanged during the alternation of viewing angle (see figure). The refractive index in photonic material changes identically all directions. This isotropic feature dielectric distribution leads to wavelength-selective light scattering. Detailed facts importance specialist readers are published as "Supporting Information". Such documents peer-reviewed,...
An elastomer is a three-dimensional network with cross-linked polymer chain that undergoes large deformation small external force and returns to its original state when the removed. Because of this hyperelasticity, elastomers are regarded as one best candidates for matrix material soft robots. However, comprehensive performance required materials special challenge because improvement some properties often causes deterioration others. For example, an in toughness can be realized by adding...
Abstract Polymeric hydrogel with the incorporation of nano to submicro-meter sized materials forms an exhilarating new generation composite hydrogels. Most applications hydrogels are in aqueous environments which they swell a very high degree. This emanates from low density polymer chains, making them highly inferior terms physical strength and their prospective applications. In order address weak mechanical properties, have successfully prepared tensile toughness by reinforcing acrylamide...
Biodegradable polymeric films have great potential as alternatives to synthetic reduce environmental pollution. Plasticizing agents and nanofillers can improve the mechanical properties of polymer-based composites, resulting in materials with better flexibility extensibility. Starch, a natural polymer, be produced at low cost on large scale from abundant inexpensive agricultural resources like potatoes. The aim present work was fabricate mechanically strong thermally stable potato starch...
