Dielectric elastomers: Strain with less pain
Dielectric elastomer actuators are made stronger and more easily using a synthesis approach that doesn’t rely on pre-stretching the polymer.
Researchers Create Highly Conductive and Elastic Conductors Using Silver Nanowires
Researchers develop elastic conductors made from silver nanowires that can be used to develop stretchable electronic devices.
Spiky sensors: pressure and temperature responsive composites
New material could be perfect for tactile sensors for robot hands
Polymer adhesives: Teflon made sticky
Creating structures at the nanoscale from the normally non-sticky polymer can create gecko-like adhesion.
Nanophobic or Nanophilic?
Carbon nanotubes have the potential to unlock effective treatments for that most delicate of systems – the mammalian central nervous system. But conflicting studies and reports on potential toxicity underline the need for careful, standardized, and thorough research protocols.
Piezotronic Logic Gates Take the Strain
US scientists have developed the first examples of logic gates (NAND, NOR and XOR gates) that can be switched simply by bending the substrate.
