Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study presents a vinyl acetate‐enhanced electroactive polyvinyl chloride gel with low‐voltage deformation, strong electro‐adhesion, and controlled heating. Leveraging these synergistic properties, this work develops soft robots capable of fast locomotion, swarm reconfiguration, and low‐temperature operation (‐50°C).

Effect of diisodecyl adipate concentration in hybrid films applied to tinplate [PDF]
Chemical Industry and Chemical Engineering Quarterly, 2017 Siloxane hybrid films are fragile and have low mechanical strength due to their vitreous material properties. Hence, a new formulation incorporating a plasticizer agent was developed in order to increase the layer thickness of a uniform and homogeneous ...
