Solvent-triggered shape change in gradient-based 4D printed bilayers: case study on semi-crystalline polymer networks

This article is licensed under aCreative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence.Lorenzo Bonetti, Aron Cobianchi, Daniele Natali, Stefano Pandini, Massimo Messori, Maurizio Toselli, Giulia Scalet We propose an approach to 4D print solvent-triggered, gradient-based bilayers made of semi-crystalline crosslinked polymer networks. Out-of-plane bending is obtained after immersion in the solvent, exploiting the different swelling degrees... The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry
