Stiffening Liquid Crystal Elastomers with Liquid Crystal Inclusions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Incorporation of low molecular weight liquid crystals (LC) into liquid crystal elastomers (LCE) leads to a significant increase in their stiffness and output work density. Such remarkable stiffening is attributed to nanoscale phase‐separation and the formation of induced‐smectic domains in polydomain and monodomain LC‐LCEs, respectively.

Chemoselective Characterization of New Extracellular Matrix Deposition in Bioengineered Tumor Tissues

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Understanding the bi‐directional crosstalk between cells and their surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM) is critical for tissue engineering. This study presents a chemoselective strategy for proteomic profiling of newly deposited ECM from resident cells.

Light‐Activated Micromotors in Air Propelled by Thermal Convection

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Near‐infrared‐driven micromotors in air can overcome gravity and generate convective motion by a light‐induced thermal mechanism driven by a temperature gradient in the air caused by the interaction of the gold nanoparticles present on the surface of ZnO and NIR irradiation.

Multimaterial 3D Printing in Activating Bath Enables In Situ Polymerization of Thermosets with Intricate Geometries and Diverse Elastic Behaviors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A new embedded 3D printing (EMB3D) strategy enables in situ polymerization of DCPD/COD‐based inks within a fugitive reactive matrix where the activator in the matrix cures the printed filament. Cured ink properties are tunable through DCPD‐COD comonomer ratios, yielding materials from stiff thermosets to soft elastomers.
