Liquid Crystalline Elastomers in Soft Robotics: Assessing Promise and Limitations

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) are programmable soft materials that undergo large, anisotropic deformation in response to external stimuli. Their molecular alignment encodes directional actuation in a monolithic structure, making them long‐standing candidates for soft robotic systems.

Application of Cyclodextrins in Textile Dyeing [PDF]

, 2011
1.1 Dyeing auxiliaries Auxiliaries are compounds which are not an integral part of the dyeing process but by adding them to the dye bath the dyeing can be improved. The main functions of auxiliaries are to prepare or improve the substrate in readiness for colorants (by wetting, providing sorption sites, improving or resisting the migration of dyes), to
