Smart‐Release Ion‐Exchanged Ca‐Montmorillonite for Corrosion Protection of AA2024 Aluminium Alloy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Smart‐release anticorrosion pigments based on Zn‐ and Mn‐modified montmorillonite were developed by ion exchange of Ca‐montmorillonite and evaluated for the protection of AA2024 aluminium alloy in artificial acid rain. Both modified pigments provided effective corrosion inhibition, with Zn‐modified montmorillonite (Zn‐MMT) achieving an inhibition ...

Liquid Crystal Elastomer Actuator Matrix for Large Area Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A scalable approach is used to manufacture a digitally‐controllable, 2D 5 × 5 actuator matrix. The elements of the matrix are produced by direct ink writing of a liquid crystal elastomer ‘artificial muscle’ on large‐area flexible thin‐film heaters. In optimizing the low‐power actuators, multiple heater designs and substrate materials are investigated ...

Autonomous Reconfigurable Modular Conductive Hydrogels for Adaptive and Degradable Bioelectronic Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Bridging rigid electrodes with soft, irregular tissues demands more than conductivity alone. Modular conductive hydrogels autonomously reconfigure into conformal electrode‐tissue interfaces, coupling mixed ionic‐electronic conduction with tissue‐like mechanics, self‐healing, and degradability.
