Abstract Electro-magneto-active (EMA) polymers-based smart actuators suffer from electro-
magneto-mechanical instability (EMMI) phenomena arising due to the positive feedback …

Polysaccharide-based hydrogels (PSBHs) have received significant attention for numerous
bio-applications due to their biocompatibility and non-immunogenic performance. However …

Soft materials exhibiting large deformation under external stimuli have gained an increasing
attention in the recent past because of their potential applications in soft transducers aimed …

A group of new hydrogel materials combining high physical properties and pronounced
antibacterial activity has been developed. These are composite hydrogels “cellulose …

Stable hierarchically porous metal–organic frameworks (HP-MOFs) have been successfully
prepared under hydrothermal conditions using an anionic surfactant (sodium …

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising adsorbents for extraction of uranium (VI)
due to their high surface area and abundant active site. However, the smaller pore size (< 2 …

Modification of starch with a microgel latex has been suggested as a novel method for
preparing a hybrid hydrogel. The microgel latex,(poly (NaAA–AA–AM–AMPS)), was …

In the recent years, exploring new materials with the photocatalytic functions is a hot
research subject, but most of the photocatalysts need an excitation source during the …

Highly entangled hydrogels exhibit excellent mechanical properties, including high
toughness, high stretchability, and low hysteresis. By considering the evolution of randomly …

In this work, the behavior of a temperature-sensitive hydrogel micro-channel is investigated
by considering fluid–structure interaction (FSI). The micro-channel behavior is simulated …
