近年来,微技术的快速发展增加了开发能够在微观和宏观尺度上进行机械工作的设备的必要性。在各种致动器中,基于刺激响应水凝胶的致动器值得特别关注,刺激响应水凝胶是一种强烈吸水的三维聚合物网络。本文旨在提供一个简要的概述刺激响应水凝胶致动器的敏感性,不同的刺激,不同种类的变形,产生不同类型的运动的可能性,以及它们的应用。
The rapid development of microtechnology in recent times has increased the necessity for the development of devices, which are able to perform mechanical work on the micro- and macroscale. Among all kinds of actuators, the ones based on stimuli-responsive hydrogels, which are three-dimensional polymer networks strongly imbibed with water, deserve particular attention. This paper aims to provide a brief overview of stimuli-responsive hydrogel actuators with respect to their sensitivity to different stimuli, different kinds of deformation, the possibilities of generating different types of movement, as well as their applications.
