Programmable Photothermal Hydrogel Actuators Enabled by Adhesion
Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics, Volume 227, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.We report a one‐step strategy for constructing photothermal hydrogel actuators by directly bonding conductive polymer films to thermoresponsive hydrogels through electrophoretic adhesion. This approach enables robust interfacial bonding, simplified fabrication, and precise control of bending direction and deformation modes under laser irradiation ...
