Bioinspired, Mechano‐Regulated Interfaces for Rationally Designed, Dynamically Controlled Collection of Oil Spills from Water

Bioinspired, Mechano‐Regulated Interfaces for Rationally Designed, Dynamically Controlled Collection of Oil Spills from Water

This study describes the fabrication of bioinspired mechano‐regulated interfaces (MRI) for the separation and collection of oil spills from water. The MRI consists of 3D‐interconnected, microporous structures of sponges made of ultrasoft elastomers (Ecoflex). To validate the MRI strategy, ecoflex sp...
