Multi‐Scale 3D Printing of Magnetic Polymer Nanocomposites with Controlled Particle Dispersion and Hyperthermic Response

ABSTRACT The ability to encode well‐defined physical properties and spatiotemporally controlled responses into multifunctional nanocomposites is enabling a new generation of advanced responsive systems. We describe the synthesis of magnetic nanoflowers (NFs) and their full disper...

Fast Hydrogel Micro‐Actuators Driven by Electric Fields

ABSTRACT Electrically‐driven hydrogels are crosslinked, charged polymer networks that can deform in an electric field, prompted by osmotic pressure changes. To date, such actuators generally suffer from sluggish response time, with equilibrium actuation times ranging from minutes...
