Natural biotissues like muscles, ligaments, and nerves have highly aligned structures, which play critical roles in directional signal transport, sensing, and actuation. Inspired by anisotropic biotissues, composite hydrogels with outstanding mechanical properties and conductivity are developed by compositing thermo‐responsive poly (N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) hydrogels with highly aligned carbon...
Thermo‐Responsive Actuators
In article 2211189, Jun Fu and co‐workers study carbon fiber composited hydrogels that show extremely high anisotropy in mechanical properties, conductivity, and sensitivity. Twisted carbon fibers inside the hydrogels motivate thermo‐responsive actuation, which can be self‐monitored. The anisotropic hydrogels also demonstrate applications for “AND” or “OR” logic gates....
