Existing soft pumps often require tradeoffs between performance and compatibility with soft robotic systems. The proposed trielectrode electrostatic soft pump addresses these limitations through an innovative driving mechanism. Its design, which includes a trielectrode configuration and the use of compliant materials, improves operational efficiency ...

Haptic In‐Sensor Computing Device Based on CNT/PDMS Nanocomposite Physical Reservoir
Using a porous carbon nanotube‐polydimethylsiloxane nanocomposite, a sensor array integrated with a physical reservoir computing paradigm capable of in‐sensor computing is demonstrated. The device is able to classify between nine objects with an accuracy above 80%, opening the possibility for low‐power sensing/computing for future robotics.

Absorption of silicone fluid in a silicone elastomer
Journal of Materials Science, 1991Measurements have been made of the absorption properties of a silicone fluid in a silicone elastomer, Aircast 3700, at temperatures between 0 and 150 °C. It was found that the diffusivity could be described by Arrhenius' law. The saturation fluid content was 20% at 0 °C, decreasing to 17% at 120 °C.

Silicone Elastomer Plombage for Severe Hemoptysis
Archives of Surgery, 1973A 58-year-old man suffered massive, life-threatening hemoptysis secondary to cavitary tuberculosis. Silicone elastomer augmentation mammoplasty prostheses were inserted for cavitary collapse and as an urgent measure to control hemoptysis, with use of the well-known technique of extracostal subperiosteal plombage.
