Strategies for Developing Shape-Shifting Behaviours and Potential Applications of Poly (N-vinyl Caprolactam) Hydrogels

Stimuli-responsive hydrogels are one type of smart hydrogel, which can expand/contract in water according to changes in the surrounding environment. However, it is difficult to develop flexible shapeshifting behaviours by using a single hydrogel material. This study exploited a new method to utilise...
