Development of Heat Engines Powered by Twisted and Coiled Polymer Fiber Actuators

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Continuously rotating engines driven by thermally responsive actuating materials can turn waste heat into useful energy. For the first time heat engines operated by twisted and coiled polymer fiber actuators are demonstrated with engine design guided by two simple analytical models.

Adhesive Double‐Network Granular Organogel E‐Skin

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We introduce a double‐network granular organogel adhesive for electronic skin, overcoming adhesion and strength trade‐offs. It provides reversible, robust bonding and ionic conductivity, enabling wearable and soft robotic e‐skin. Thanks to the e‐skin adhesive, a soft robotic trunk can recognize touch, temperature, humidity, and acidity.

Multifunctional Förster Resonance Energy Transfer Materials as Thermo‐ and Mechanochromic Time Integrators

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Multifunctional fluorescent coatings offering simultaneous thermo‐ and mechanochromic‐time integration via Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) are reported. The exchange of fluorophores among donor and acceptor droplets in the coatings over time results in a decrease in the average intermolecular distance between the donor–acceptor pair, yielding ...

Microcapsule‐Mediated Vibration‐Induced Emission for Real‐Time Visualization of Polymer Deformation

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A mechanochromic microcapsule is reported that combines vibration‐induced luminescence (VIE) with mechanically controlled release functionality. By embedding the microcapsules into a polymer matrix, the conformational changes of VIE molecules can be precisely amplified into visual fluorescent color signals, enabling real‐time, high‐sensitivity ...
