Characterization of Ferrofluid-based Stimuli-responsive Elastomers

Characterization of Ferrofluid-based Stimuli-responsive Elastomers

Stimuli-responsive materials undergo physicochemical, and/or structural changes when a specific actuation is applied. They are heterogeneous composites, consisting of a non-responsive matrix where functionality is provided by the filler. Surprisingly, the synthesis of Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-bas...
