Silicone rubbers for dielectric elastomers with improved dielectric and mechanical properties as a result of substituting silica with titanium dioxide

open access: yesInternational Journal of Smart and Nano Materials, 2015
One prominent method of modifying the properties of dielectric elastomers (DEs) is by adding suitable metal oxide fillers. However, almost all commercially available silicone elastomers are already heavily filled with silica to reinforce the otherwise ...

Chemically defined, ultrasoft PDMS elastomers with selectable elasticity for mechanobiology. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Living animal cells are strongly influenced by the mechanical properties of their environment. To model physiological conditions ultrasoft cell culture substrates, in some instances with elasticity (Young's modulus) of only 1 kPa, are mandatory.
