Modulating Stiffness and Shape of a Soft, Textile‐Based Structure Through Glass Transition of a Conductive Phase‐Changing Polymer

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A variable stiffness structure with shape morphing and shape memory capabilities made from layered textiles and 3D printing material is developed. Direct printing of cPLA on textile electrodes maximizes the electrodes' contact area. This work presents a new method for achieving variable stiffness in small segments of soft, deformable structures, using ...

High‐Performance n‐Type OFETs Enabled by Pyridine‐Substituted Diketopyrrolopyrrole Organic Semiconductor and Elastomer Stretchable Blends

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Two n‐type small molecules (DPPPy‐C10‐TN and DPPPy‐C‐Si‐TN) based on alkyl/siloxane‐substituted pyridine flanked diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPPPy) end capped with thienyl naphthalimide (TN) for organic filed effect transistors (OFETs) are reported. Interestingly, bottom‐gate top‐contact OFETs based on DPPPy‐C‐Si‐TN:SEBS blend show a high electron mobility ...

4D Printed Self‐Deploying Bio‐Based Scaffolds for the Regeneration of Endoluminal Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A bilayer self‐deploying tubular C‐shaped scaffold, made of natural polymers and triggerable by humidity, is fabricated via 4D printing for the regeneration of gastro‐intestinal tissue. The choice of the materials and their spatial arrangement is guided by physical and biological evaluation, whereas the geometry of the structure is optimized through ...
