Liquid Crystalline Elastomers in Soft Robotics: Assessing Promise and Limitations

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

Investigation of structure-property relationships in systematic series of novel polymers [PDF]

open access: yes
Solid state transitions in polymeric materials was associated with the onset of sub-molecular motions of the polymer chains. Although these were considered to be intramolecular in general, the local environment of the polymer molecule exerts a strong ...
