Biohybrid Crawling Robot With Spiral‐Spring Backbone and Inclined Legs for Enhanced Locomotion

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We present a biohybrid crawling robot integrating a muscle ring with a flexible skeleton combining two complementary structural elements. The spiral‐spring backbone enables large‐amplitude bending without compromising axial stability, while outward‐inclined legs with unequal front–rear lengths effectively convert deformation into directional strides ...

Cross-Linked Polymer Hydrogel Electrolytes for Electrochemical Capacitors [PDF]

Journal of The Electrochemical Society, 2006
Acidic polyvinyl alcohol/polyacrylic acid blend hydrogel electrolytes (BHEs) were prepared by cross-linking with glutaraldehyde and perchloric acid. These acidic BHEs were treated suitably to realize alkaline and neutral BHEs. Amorphicity of BHEs was followed by differential scanning calorimetry.
