Liquid crystal elastomer composites for soft actuators
ABSTRACTLiquid crystal elastomers are active materials that combine the anisotropic properties of liquid crystals with the elasticity of polymer networks. The LCEs exhibit remarkable reversible contraction and elongation capabilities in response to external stimuli, rendering them highly promising f...
