Photothermomechanically Efficient, Low‐Cost, High‐Cycle‐Life, Hybrid MXene‐Polymer Actuators

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The addition of MXenes to elastomer‐plastic‐paper films enables the creation of easily prepared actuators that are scalable for small robotic applications. Known as MXene‐polymer Trilayer Actuators (MPTAs), they bend from UV light. Their usefulness is demonstrated through kirigami‐inspired flower‐shaped art design, parallel manipulator for waveguiding,

Rescaffolding Carbon Nanotubes in Thermoset Polymers by Heat Treatments

Advances in Polymer Technology
Due to cross-linked structures, thermoset polymers cannot provide sufficient free volume for nanofillers to maneuver. Related composites are therefore governed by phase separation where filler-deficit regions become mechanical weakness.
