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.

Design of a Simple and Rugged Soft Polydimethylsiloxane‐Carbon Nanotube‐Graphene‐Based Composite Sensor

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This research presents an easy to fabricate, low‐cost, flexible piezoresistive deformation sensor comprised of a carbon nanotube, few‐layer graphene, and polydimethylsiloxane composite. The sensor detects deformations and vibrations up to 600 Hz with 0.1% strain sensitivity from stiff and soft targets in dry and wet environments.

Miniaturized Devices for On‐the‐Spot Generation of Small‐Diameter Vascular Grafts

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An intracorporeal extrusion device is developed for on‐the‐spot generation of vascular grafts with tunable diameters spanning from 1 to 6 mm. The device uses biomimetic polymers and light, to promptly obtaining biocompatible and high‐burst pressure‐resistant grafts.
