The production of natural materials is achieved through a bottom‐up approach, in which materials spontaneously grow and adapt to the external environment. Synthetic materials are specifically designed and fabricated as engineered materials; however, they are far away from these natural self‐growing attributes. Thus, design and fabrication of synthetic material systems to replicate the self‐growing...
Hydrogels
In article number 2210609, Ji Liu, Kai Zhang, and co‐workers report how newly formed hydrogel materials at the EGaIn/AAm precursor interface, through interfacial radical polymerization, gradually push the whole hydrogel upward, enabling the self‐growth of these synthetic hydrogel materials, similar to those natural prototypes.
