An Injection‐Molded Modified Silicone Rubber for Cancer‐on‐Chip Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This study describes the characterization and application of an injection‐molded functionalized PDMS fluidic insert for the commercially available Micronit system. Modified PDMS can accommodate cell culture and is able to covalently bind proteins for long‐lasting coatings under flow‐conditions.

Magnetic Actuation Under DC and AC Fields of Thermoplastic Polyurethane With Strontium Hexaferrite

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Magnetic thermoplastic polyurethane composites with strontium hexaferrite (SrFe12O19) are produced through a solvent‐free melt‐mixing technique. These composites display a magnetomechanical actuation mechanism, being able to deform (bend and twist) through DC and AC magnetic fields, showcasing their potential as a promising material for the fabrication

Direct Ink Writing of Carbon‐Based Electrofluids for Soft Electrical Component Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This work explores the manufacturing of Electrofluids (EFs), conductive particle suspensions that flow while maintaining conductivity, for soft electrical components. Using Direct Ink Writing (DIW), patterned EFs achieve enhanced performance, including a 800% sensitivity boost in strain gauges. Through rheological studies, a printability map is created

Unraveling the Effects of Improved Cooling and Bias Force in the Actuation of a Shape‐Memory Soft Multimaterial Gripper

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study examines a soft gripper with a NiTiCu6 Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) wire embedded in a graphene nanoparticle (GNP)‐functionalized PDMS matrix. Comparing GNP‐enhanced and plain elastomer prototypes, results show that GNPs improve cooling rates, accelerating release by 40%, but increase energy consumption in low‐current activations.

Multi‐Stamping on Multi‐Prestrain (MSMP) Process for Multifunctional Wearable Bioelectronics with Optimized Electromechanical Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A novel multi‐stamping on multi‐prestrain (MSMP) process is proposed, where sensor elements are transferred onto a substrate under different prestrains (0–150%) within a single integrated platform. This MSMP approach not only resolves the mismatch issue in stretchable wearable electronics, but also ensures that each sensor element exhibits optimal ...

Self‐Folded Corrugated Origami Sensor Based on Triboelectric Nanogenerator for a Smart Cushioning Device

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A corrugated origami TENG (CO‐TENG) soft sensor utilizes paper self‐folding technology to create battery‐free devices by laminating and folding sheet materials. In the object drop test, the voltage generated by CO‐TENG is classified with machine learning to achieve an accuracy of 98.9%, which shows its potential for smart cushioning devices.
