The article discusses a study which noted polymer-based systems or artificial musles expansion and contraction. The study focused on a poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)(pNIPAm)-microgel-based device that is capable of lifting masses many times the mass of the device, in response to simple changes in the humidity of its environment. The device was constructed by depositing a monolayer of poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-acrylic acid microgels on an Au-coated substrate.
