Highly Elastic, Transparent, and Conductive 3D-Printed Ionic Composite Hydrogel

Highly Elastic, Transparent, and Conductive 3D-Printed Ionic Composite Hydrogel Jérémy Odent, Thomas J. Wallin, Wenyang Pan, Kevin Kruemplestaedter, Robert F. Shepherd, and Emmanuel P. Giannelis Abstract :  Despite extensive progress to engineer hydrogels for a broad range of technologies, practical applications have remained elusive due to their (until recently) poor mechanical properties and lack of […]

Hierarchical chemomechanical encoding of multiresponsive hydrogel actuators via 3D printing

Hierarchical chemomechanical encoding of multiresponsive hydrogel actuators via 3D printing Jérémy Odent, Sophie Vanderstappen, Antoniya Toncheva, Enzo Pichon, Thomas J. Wallin, Kaiyang Wang, Robert F. Shepherd, Philippe Dubois and Jean-Marie Raquez Abstract :  Inspired by nature, we herein demonstrate a family of multi-responsive hydrogel-based actuators that are encoded with anisotropic swelling behavior to provide rapid […]
