A Dual‐Driven Hydrogel Actuator With Programmable Driving Force Enabled by a Shape‐Memory Scaffold and Ion‐Regulated Internal Force Reservoir

ABSTRACT Programmable soft actuators require independent control over both deformation pathways and driving‐force output, yet conventional shape‐memory systems generally encode these functions within a fixed network and therefore exhibit predetermined recovery behavior. Herein, w...

Butterfly Proboscis‐Inspired Water‐Welding Strategy for Hollow‐Walled Hydrogel 3D Stents With Ultrahigh Mechanical Support Capacity

ABSTRACT Hydrogels have emerged as promising candidates for next‐generation implantable biomedical stents. However, the scalable fabrication of hydrogel three‐dimensional (3D) stents with sufficient mechanical support remains a major challenge, owing to the intrinsic flexibility...
